About this course

Event managers bring events to life from conception to execution by effectively managing resources and logistics, making sure that the event provides a positive experience for attendees and meets stakeholders expectations.

Our Business Management with Events degree is an opportunity to gain skills in all aspects of business management, alongside focusing on events as a specialist subject.

After your first year you can continue to specialise in events, or have the freedom to switch to our general Business Management degree, economics, entrepreneurship, finance, human resource management or law specialisms.
