BA Business and Management (Entrepreneurship and Innovation)
About this course
Business and management with entrepreneurship and innovation is a degree that acknowledges a fundamental reality of contemporary organisational life: that the ability to generate new ideas, identify opportunities, and drive change is no longer the preserve of start-up founders but is valued in organisations of every kind, from established corporations to public sector bodies and social enterprises. Entrepreneurship education develops the mindset and practical capabilities needed to act on ideas effectively, while the management foundation ensures you understand how organisations function and how decisions translate into outcomes. At Gloucestershire this three-year full-time programme develops the conceptual and practical knowledge of business management alongside specific focus on entrepreneurship and innovation, building skills that are applicable whether you are creating a new venture or developing entrepreneurial capabilities within an existing organisation. The programme develops your understanding of marketing, finance, leadership, management processes, and the ethical dimensions of business alongside the creative and commercial thinking needed to identify and pursue opportunities in complex environments. Gloucestershire's beautiful location and strong regional business connections provide a supportive context for entrepreneurial development. Graduates find careers across business, start-up ecosystems, and established organisations where innovation is valued. Some launch their own ventures, applying the skills and frameworks developed during the programme to creating and growing businesses. Others join organisations in roles requiring entrepreneurial initiative and commercial acumen, including corporate development, product management, and business development. The combination of management knowledge and entrepreneurial orientation is also valued in the charitable sector, social enterprise, and public sector innovation. Many graduates also continue to postgraduate study in entrepreneurship, innovation management, or business administration.
