Teaching & Modules
Teaching methods - what to expect
You will be taught through a combination of lectures, tutorials and independent study. A typical 15-credit module will include a 1 - 2-hour lecture and a 1-hour tutorial each week. We encourage critical analysis and debate on contemporary business issues.
At King’s, we place great emphasis on independent study and research to bring your ideas and things you have discovered to discuss. As a student of business and finance, you will use resources which include books, newspapers and magazines, the internet, social media, TV and radio and more to understand the discipline: how things were done and have developed; contemporary business issues and challenges; and what might be in the future.
Typically, one credit equates to 10 hours of work.
We will use a delivery method that will ensure students have a rich, exciting experience from the start. Face-to-face teaching will be complemented and supported with innovative technology so that students also experience elements of digital learning and assessment.
