Strategy, operations, people and finance for those who lead across a whole organisation.

BA (Hons) Business Management
Overview

Why this programme

You already run something — a team, a branch, a family business, a function. What you may not have is the degree that lets other people see it. This final year turns the experience you already hold into a full British honours degree.

Six modules, no examinations. You work through transformation, governance, project delivery and international trade using Arden's business simulation software, where you run a virtual company and live with the consequences of your own decisions — then finish with an Independent Study on a question that matters inside your own organisation.

Delivered in Bangkok and online by ADVEX Management School under a transnational education partnership with Arden University, United Kingdom.

Already hold a degree? This can be your second one.
The final year is not only for diploma holders. Applicants who already hold a bachelor's degree in another field are regularly admitted and use this year to add a second bachelor's degree — a recognised way to move into a new field, or to certificate work you are already doing. Entry is assessed individually; speak to admissions before you apply.
