BA Business Management with Law
About this course
Business management and law is a combination that makes sense because in practice the two are inseparable. Every significant business decision, from hiring and contracting through to mergers, intellectual property, and regulatory compliance, is shaped by legal frameworks. Understanding those frameworks from the inside, not just as an external constraint but as a tool for structuring relationships and managing risk, makes you a more effective manager and a more valuable professional. At Leeds Beckett University, this part-time programme develops both sets of skills in parallel. You will study the core areas of business management including strategy, marketing, finance, operations, and organisational behaviour alongside the legal areas most relevant to commercial and corporate life, including contract law, company law, employment law, and commercial regulation. A sandwich year places you in a professional environment for a sustained period, a year abroad broadens your perspective on how business and legal environments differ across countries, and work placement experience is embedded throughout. The part-time mode allows you to study while managing other commitments, including existing work or care responsibilities. Graduates from business management with law programmes work in corporate management roles, compliance functions, human resources, contract management, business operations, and commercial advisory positions. Many also pursue further legal training, including the Solicitors Qualifying Examination for those who wish to qualify as solicitors, though the degree itself is a BA rather than an LLB and does not alone confer qualifying law degree status for professional purposes in all contexts. Postgraduate study in law, business, and management is a common route for those who wish to deepen their expertise.
