BSc Management
About this course
Management at degree level is concerned with understanding how organisations work and how they can be led, structured, and developed to achieve their purposes. As the current description of this programme at the London School of Economics notes, the BSc Management at LSE explores how organisations work and examines management practice in the context of economics, statistics, mathematics, and accounting. This framing is distinctive: rather than treating management as a collection of practical techniques, LSE grounds it in the social and quantitative sciences that allow for rigorous analysis of organisational behaviour, market structures, and the consequences of managerial decisions. At LSE, one of the world's most prestigious social science institutions, this three-year full-time programme develops a deeper analytical understanding of management than programmes at many other institutions provide. You will engage with the economics of firm behaviour, the statistical methods used to analyse organisational and market data, the accounting frameworks through which financial performance is measured and reported, and the organisational behaviour research that examines how people in institutions actually act. This scientific orientation does not exclude the practical: the analytical tools you develop are precisely what is needed to make well-grounded managerial judgements in complex, data-rich environments. The programme includes a year abroad, giving you the opportunity to study at a partner university and engage with management in an international academic context. LSE's location in London and its extensive alumni network provide unparalleled access to business, finance, government, and international organisations. Graduates from the BSc Management at LSE pursue careers across management consultancy, finance, technology, the civil service, international organisations, entrepreneurship, and a very wide range of sectors and organisations. The combination of analytical rigour and management knowledge that LSE develops is particularly valued in roles that require evidence-based decision-making. Postgraduate study in management, economics, or a related field supports those seeking research or specialist careers.
