Business Management (Mandarin) BA Honours

Overview
Immerse yourself in business management and China
This course is tailored towards ambitious students who want to work internationally in business through Mandarin. In our Mandarin pathway you are free to shape your studies towards your career ambitions and give yourself the ability to work within one of the world’s leading economies.

You’ll be supported not only by academics with industry experience, you’ll also have specialist Mandarin classes with a fluent tutor to hone your business language skills.

As part of the course you’ll spend a year immersing yourself in China so you can understand the culture and develop your language skills. Some students even go on to work part-time at Beijing International Studies University (BISU) as teaching assistants.

Develop your language skills
Depending on your level of language fluency and understanding, you’ll enter either the beginners or intermediates stream, where you’ll learn and develop your language skills. You’ll also be working on a range of broader business topics, including corporate culture and effective business practice.

You’ll learn marketing management theory and financial analysis, as well as HR management and operation management. You’ll work in teams on projects in order to build your business ideas and confidence. You’ll gain specialist knowledge in design, production and business resourcing among other modules.

Supporting your career goals
Our personalised approach gives you the support you need to succeed as a student. While you are an undergraduate or foundation year student, you’ll have a Personal Tutor directly related to your course. If you need support with academic writing, numeracy and library skills, we’ll be sure to provide it. Our Student Learning and Graduate Academic Assistants have studied your subject and can support you with their own first hand experience.

Once you've completed the course you'll be ideally placed to begin working in industry, government or third sector organisations throughout the English and Chinese speaking business worlds. Previous graduates have gone on to work in marketing and finance, while many others go on to study for a postgraduate in Chinese Studies.
