UWE Bristol

BA Hons Business and Management Top Up

Top up your existing qualifications to an honours degree. This top-up degree is equivalent to the final year of undergraduate study and is aimed at students who have previously completed a relevant qualification, such as a Higher National Diploma or equivalent.

Why study business and management?

Businesses have to constantly challenge and re-invent themselves to compete in the increasingly competitive global market.

As such, employers need graduates who can go beyond business theory with practical skills and real-world experience of how the business world works.
