Description

This course provides students with an opportunity to gain a good insight into business management while, at the same time, acquiring a basic though sound knowledge of important core areas of law.

The blending of business modules such as economics, finance and management theory, with areas of law that are vital for an understanding of organisations’ rights and obligations, such as contract law and law of employment, will provide students with a solid business education and potentially a great career in business.

Given the semi specialist nature of this course, students who undertake it will be exposed to wide areas of law such as Constitutional and Civil Liberties, Criminal Law and International Law. The law modules in this course will provide students with a well above average understanding of the implications of law for individuals and organisations alike in the national community as well as the international sphere.

Those who may wish to pursue legal studies and perhaps even enter the legal profession will have gained a very useful foundation from which to tackle the Diploma in Law (which a good pass in this course will qualify them to do).
