BA Business Management and Film & Visual Culture (With Foundation Year)
About this course
Business management and film and visual culture is a combination that brings commercial and organisational skills into dialogue with the study of screen media and visual arts. Business management provides the frameworks for understanding how organisations operate, compete, and are led, covering strategy, finance, marketing, operations, and human resources. Film and visual culture develops your ability to analyse moving images, understand the industries that produce them, and situate screen media within their historical, social, and cultural contexts. Together, the two disciplines open possibilities in the creative industries, where understanding both the business and the cultural dimensions of film and media is genuinely valuable. Liverpool Hope University's four-year full-time Business Management and Film and Visual Culture degree includes a foundation year and carries a typical entry tariff of 88 points. The programme also includes a sandwich year, a year abroad option, and work placement opportunities, giving you substantial professional experience and an international dimension before you graduate. You will study the principles of business management, examining small and medium enterprises as well as global multinationals across public, private, and not-for-profit sectors, alongside the study of film, television, and visual culture from critical and historical perspectives. The combination gives you the analytical breadth to work in creative industries, media production, marketing, or management roles where both skill sets are relevant. Graduates work in film and television production, media management, arts administration, marketing and communications, digital media, and general management roles in creative organisations. The combination is particularly suited to roles in the creative economy where commercial acumen and cultural understanding go together. Many graduates also pursue postgraduate study in film, media studies, or business management.
