Undergraduate Programmes

BA (Hons) International Business

Building Your MajorThe EBS degree offers over 300 possible pathways. Students tailor the main BA (Hons) in International Business with a choice of one or two languages, and by selecting a specific major.

The first three semesters comprise core business subjects, covering key concepts in economics, marketing, finance, management and international business. Students will also study their language options from the first semester.

During this time you will choose your Major. Your personal tutor will be at hand to assist you in this selection, you will also use knowledge gained on the course and through your work experience to select the major that complements your future goals.

The choices you make will build on your greatest strengths, and will offer your future employers the special EBS London combination of skills and experience.

The six areas in which you can take a Major are

  • Economics

  • Finance

  • Law

  • Management (Entrepreneurship)

  • Management (Human Resource Management)

  • Marketing

Majors and Electives

Your chosen Major will drive your choice of Electives while at EBS London and at one or more of our partner Institutions abroad.

Your choice of electives during your degree programme will help you specialise in particular areas of interest. The course will evolve over time, and electives may change due to new thought and disciplines emerging in business education.

Undergraduate Work Experience

The EBS work experience programme is more than just experience of work. It is also about shaping career choices, testing theoretical know-how, and learning the cultural conventions and sensitivities which are so important today. It's also a lot of fun and can lead to life-long friendships.

Classroom study and workplace experience form two interlocking parts of the same continual process - academic and practical development - building on each other to realise your full potential.

Requirements

You will work in real business situations for at least 36 weeks before you can graduate, although some of our students choose to do more. This total is usually divided into blocks of time between the academic semesters and, depending on your chosen Major and languages, it may be completed in up to three countries.

Assessed Work Placement Option In addition to the standard requirement of 36 weeks of work placement, you may elect to replace one of the Study Abroad semesters (semesters 4 & 5) with a period of 4-5 months of assessed work placement (Work Based Report).

This WBR is the equivalent of two Level 2 Study Abroad electives, counting for 30 credits, and will be assessed on the same basis as an Study Abroad semester, gaining credits but with the grade not being counted towards classification.

If you wish to elect to take this route through the degree, you must inform the Course Leader by the end of your first semester.
