During a time in which we have lived through a major economic crisis, issues of economics and global trade have never been more critical. Economics & International Business focuses on these key developments that impact on all of us.  

The BA International Business and the MA International Trade & Finance courses have a September and January intake and welcome students from all over the world. Please see here for more information on how to apply.

The PG Cert Executive & Business Coaching equips managers with a tool kit of techniques to coach individuals through a wide range of personal performance issues and enables you to build a proactive learning and performance culture within any organisation.
