Business is a subject grounded in the real world and is suited to students who are interested in the workings of business enterprises and the behaviour of people within them. Whilst the subject is good preparation for those making a choice of a career in business, its wide-ranging nature and the intellectual challenge it presents make it an ideal choice for students uncertain about their career choice or looking to complement other subjects. The type of issue and problem that you would face on the course would be very similar to the practical problems faced each day by those running businesses. You will study the problems faced by managers when taking decisions about production, marketing, finance and staffing. In addition, you will take a wider account of the constraints placed on businesses by the economy, government and social matters. Since the syllabus focuses on practical business situations, you will routinely use real business material based on specific industries such as games consoles, mobile phones and supermarkets. The emphasis is on using the skills developed to deal with the problems presented.
