BSc Business Management and Finance
About this course
Business management and finance are complementary disciplines that together address two of the most fundamental questions in organisational life: how do organisations function and compete, and how do they raise, allocate, and account for money? Management provides the strategic and operational lens, covering how businesses are structured, how decisions are made, how people are led, and how competitive advantage is built. Finance provides the analytical and quantitative dimension, examining how capital markets work, how investment decisions are evaluated, and how financial information is used to inform and govern organisations. At Roehampton, this three-year programme offers a practice-based curriculum built around real-world cases, developing your ability to make evidence-based business decisions rather than simply to describe theory. You will study the core areas of both management and finance, from strategy, marketing, and organisational behaviour to financial accounting, corporate finance, and investment analysis. A foundation year is available for students who need additional grounding before the main course, and both a sandwich year in industry and a work placement are integrated into the programme, giving you structured exposure to professional environments where you can apply and test what you have learned. Graduates are well positioned for a wide range of careers in business and finance. Common routes include financial analysis, management consultancy, accounting, corporate strategy, investment, banking, and general management roles across different sectors. The combination of management breadth and financial depth is valued by organisations that need people who understand both the operational and the financial dimensions of business performance. Further study, including professional accountancy or finance qualifications or a postgraduate degree in business administration or finance, is a natural next step for those who want to advance or specialise.
