Get the skills and experience you need to study an undergraduate degree in business management, marketing or accounting.
This programme provides international and EU students with a direct route to undergraduate study. All modules are taught by our expert academic staff, and you’ll have full access to student facilities, including welfare, library, social and sport.
Once you pass the foundation year, you are guaranteed a place on an undergraduate degree in the School of Business and Management at Queen Mary, with pathways to management, marketing or accounting. You can also apply to other UK universities after your foundation year, and you’ll get a high level of support with your UCAS application.
You’ll gain a solid foundation in the main theories of business and organisational behaviour, as well as developing your skills in analysis, problem solving and decision-making. You’ll have the option to learn a foreign language, as well as improving your ability to use academic English effectively at undergraduate level.
Start your International Foundation Programme (IFP) in either September or January.
Please note that all modules are subject to change.
The Business Management programme is unique in the wide scope of modules available in second and third years. I founded a society, ‘Queen Mary Business and Enterprise Society’, with my acquired knowledge and skills.
You'll receive approximately 15 to 28 hours of weekly contact time, in the form of lectures and seminars. You will be encouraged to contribute to seminars through pair work, group work, discussion, presentation and case studies.
You'll also need to carry out a further two to three hours of independent study per module.
Assessment includes a combination of class tests, coursework, and a final exam. Coursework includes a written report, a portfolio and a presentation.
