Our BA (Hons) Business Administration (top-up) course will accelerate your development as a manager and leader. It’s ideal if you’re looking to build on an existing business administration course and gain an honours degree.
This one-year top-up course allows you to gain a full honours degree if you’ve already completed a business administration course which is equivalent to the first two years of a relevant UK degree (such as an HND, Foundation Degree or overseas diploma).
You’ll delve into the study of international organisations, their management, and the changing external environment in which they operate.
Graduates from this course will be well equipped to go straight into an influential management/leadership role.

Course delivery
Following the pandemic, we have found that some courses benefit from a blended learning and teaching approach. Therefore, the majority of your teaching will be face-to-face on campus aside from a small amount of online teaching where we have learnt it works best.
Every effort has been made to ensure the accuracy of our published course information. However, our programmes are subject to ongoing review and development. Changing circumstances may cause alteration to, or the cancellation of, courses. Changes may be necessary to comply with the requirements of accrediting bodies or revisions to subject benchmarks statements. As well as to keep courses updated and contemporary, or as a result of student feedback. We reserve the right to make variations if we consider such action to be necessary or in the best interests of students.

My name is Kavisha Prince Anthony, and I always had a dream of studying abroad. Thankfully, that dream came to life since I applied to the Study Advisor. I was able to receive my visa within four days. I also had some visa refusals in the past; I had about six UK visa refusals in the past, but thankfully, it was not an issue since the Study Advisor was able to make things work this time. I highly recommend Study Advisor for your dreams of going abroad, whether it be the UK or any other European country there is.
