Adaptability and a wide range of industry skills offer graduates a strong platform to target careers in a variety of business sectors.

The BA (Hons) Business and Finance degree at Lincoln aims to equip students with the tools and knowledge to operate in a range of business environments, and to develop a broad understanding of business and finance from an international perspective.

The course introduces business and finance theory, including the importance of data analysis, legal knowledge, marketing, and operations. Modules have been designed to enable students to develop the ability to apply learning to practical situations.

Placements

All full-time students on this course have the opportunity to take a year-long work placement after the second year. A work placement can allow students to gain experience and apply their learning in practice. Those who choose this route do not pay tuition fees for that year but will be required to cover their own travel, accommodation, and general living costs. Students are expected to source their own placement, and tutors can provide support during the process if required.

There are also opportunities for relevant work experience and career development as part of the degree course itself, as well as through various other Lincoln International Business School and University schemes. For more information, visit LIBS work placements pages.

A wide variety of opportunities exist in many areas of business and finance around the world. These include roles in financial management, investment banking, advertising, marketing, e-commerce, human resources, and project management.
