MSc Management (International Business)

Programme overview
Our MSc in Management (with specialism in International Business) is an intensive one-year programme that offers you a unique opportunity to develop a global perspective on your management practice, while gaining a thorough grounding in the core theories and concepts that are central to a career in management today. Due to the increasing globalisation of organisations, work, our economy and society, this specialism in international business will be relevant to any future career, and particularly to graduates looking to work for an international organisation.
You will start by studying management theory across a range of core disciplines, including finance and accounting, organisational behaviour and strategic management. In term two you will gain a deeper understanding of international business by studying two units that are core to this specialism. Finally, in the summer term the dissertation provides an opportunity for independent research focused on international business and management.
Our programme is designed for graduates of any discipline who aspire to a career in international business and management. You do not need any prior academic or practical experience in business or management, but you should have an international outlook and a genuine interest in developing innovative and creative solutions to business problems with a global perspective.
You will be part of a dynamic and diverse body of staff and students in Bristol, and be taught by experienced academics. Many staff within our School of Economics, Finance and Management are actively engaged in conducting pioneering research at international level, and our school was ranked sixth in the UK for its research impact (REF 2014), reflecting the quality and contribution our research plays in shaping policy and practice in the UK, Europe and globally.
