Birkbeck's BSc Business with Foundation Year provides a perfect route to study for those who do not meet the entry requirements for direct entry to an undergraduate business degree, who do not feel they are quite ready for an undergraduate degree, or who are returning to study after a significant break and need extra help and support.

The Foundation Year helps build confidence and provides skills to study successfully at undergraduate level. It also provides you with a strong foundation in the main subject area of business.

Upon successful completion of the Foundation Year, you will automatically progress to our three-year, full-time, evening study BSc Business. The BSc focuses on the different functional areas of business and will provide you with a solid foundation for a career in business management. This course is distinctive in its flexibility and it moves from generic business skills early on to more specialist knowledge as the programme progresses.
