What the college says

Business is a broad and varied subject, which will give you an understanding of how businesses operate, why some businesses succeed and others fail and the reasons behind the decisions businesses make. One of the things which makes Business such an interesting subject is that the whole of society is impacted by the decisions that businesses make so the course covers highly topical areas such as marketing, pricing decisions, business ethics, globalisation, international trade, digital technology and the economic environment not to mention political developments such as Brexit or the sugar tax. In this way studying Business gives you a greater understanding of our society. You will also develop transferable skills such as numeracy, interpreting and analysing data and applying knowledge and understanding to different contexts to make judgements. Students who study Business go on to study a wide range of subjects at university, begin employment or begin apprenticeships in areas such as business or accountancy.
