Our Bachelor of Business Administration (BBA) double degrees are four-year integrated programmes, where you spend two years in Lancaster and two overseas. You will emerge from your academic studies equipped with sound professional and technical knowledge of management disciplines combined with practical managerial skills and experience. You will also have concrete experiences and invaluable insights into the culture and customs of other countries, as well as fluency in another European language.

You start your degree at Lancaster, studying subjects such as Introduction to Management; Introduction to Financial Accounting for Managers; and Introduction to Operations Management. In your second year, you will follow modules including Introduction to Finance; Management Accounting for Business Decisions; and Management and Consulting: Practice and Technique.

In both years you must also choose an appropriate language course within the Department of Languages and Cultures. In the summer vacations of the first two years, all students undertake an approved work placement of approximately ten weeks.

You will spend your third and final years abroad, studying at the prestigious CESEM in Reims, France. You transfer to the partner university at the beginning of your third year and take courses such as Managerial Economics and Introduction to Operations Management. You will also undertake a six-month work placement in the country where you’re studying, typically starting in the middle of your third year.

At the end of the four years, you will be awarded two degrees: BBA Hons from Lancaster and the corresponding degree of the partner university.

Lancaster University offers a range of programmes, some of which follow a structured study programme, and others which offer the chance for you to devise a more flexible programme. We divide academic study into two sections - Part 1 (Year 1) and Part 2 (Year 2, 3 and sometimes 4). For most programmes Part 1 requires you to study 120 credits spread over at least three modules which, depending upon your programme, will be drawn from one, two or three different academic subjects. A higher degree of specialisation then develops in subsequent years.

Information contained on the website with respect to modules is correct at the time of publication, but changes may be necessary, for example as a result of student feedback, Professional Statutory and Regulatory Bodies' (PSRB) requirements, staff changes, and new research.
