... University of Essex

Course Overview

Business management professionals with language skills now more than ever are able to navigate the international and globalized nature of contemporary commerce. So, if you want to rise to the challenge of living and working abroad or engaging international stakeholders then BA Business Management with a Modern Language could be the ideal entry route for you.

This broad business management course offers you the opportunity to learn one modern language of your choice. You spend your third year studying abroad to experience a different culture and perspective on management, as well as improve your language skills.

Being bilingual can widen your career opportunities and make it easier for you to secure a senior position in a global organization.

We offer a comprehensive language education to mastery level, covering vocabulary, grammar, reading, writing, and speaking in preparation for your year abroad. We develop your practical language skills and you are taught intensively by a native speaker.
