Overview
Business Management at King’s is a broad discipline encompassing a number of specialist fields including economics, psychology, sociology, accounting, finance, marketing, law and human resource management. With strong links to the business world surrounding our campus in the heart of London, our students have excellent networking opportunities and a wealth of entrepreneurial, business and economic societies to engage with and enhance their studies.
During the third year of the programme, you will have the opportunity to undertake a year in industry, working in an organisation in the UK or overseas. Through a placement, students can develop personal and professional skills, gain practical experience and apply theories, concepts and academic knowledge from their studies to real-world issues within a global business context.
Whilst all students are responsible for securing their own placement and such opportunities can never be guaranteed, our dedicated Global Placements Team provides extensive placement support to guide students through the process.
