Description:

Business is global; to be successful you need to understand international cultures and markets and adapt your business to their needs. As an International Business student at Kent, you develop the essential business skills to lead any business anywhere.

The International Business programme is taught in Kent Business School (KBS) in a brand-new building, providing modern study facilities. We provide a friendly, student-focused environment, which helps you to make the most of your studies.

You benefit from our global links and the international make-up of our staff and students. You are taught by lecturers with experience in a range of management disciplines, as well as by leading experts currently in business.

As a student at Kent Business School, you also have the opportunity to gain the Chartered Management Institute’s (CMI) Level 5 Professional Award in Management and Leadership alongside your degree.

Our degree programme

In your first year, you are introduced to all aspects of business including accounting, financial reporting, business modelling and the global business environment.

In your second and final years, you cover international business strategy, business ethics, operations management, innovation, strategy analysis and interactive decision modelling. You can also focus on areas you are particularly interested in, such as new product marketing, international entrepreneurship and enterprise.

Year abroad

Students on a four-year degree programme spend a year between Stages 2 and 3 at one of our partner universities in Europe or Asia.  For a full list, please see Go Abroad. Places are subject to availability, language and degree programme.

You are expected to adhere to any academic progression requirements in Stages 1 and 2 to proceed to the Year Abroad.  If the requirement is not met, you will be transferred to the equivalent three-year programme. The Year Abroad is assessed on a pass/fail basis and will not count towards your final degree classification.

You don’t have to make a decision before you enrol at Kent but certain conditions apply.

Year in industry

You have the option to take our International Business programme with a year in industry. For more details, see International Business with a Year in Industry.
