Developed for those with a business related degree seeking a managerial career, this specialist course aims to develop your strategic outlook, and provide you with the opportunity to increase your knowledge and understanding of business and management within an international context.

The phenomenon of globalisation can no longer be ignored by any company, whatever their size and scope, yet many firms face challenges capitalising on the opportunities available in an increasingly interconnected world. By recognising that some traditional business tools and techniques are now outdated as a result of this fast pace of change, we’ll allow you to explore new and innovative approaches to strategy, organisation, operations and finance, and how to apply them to international contexts.

Coventry Business School was ranked as ‘excellent’ in 2019 by Eduniversal, a ranking of business schools in over 150 countries, with expertise in delivering leadership programmes, having won recent contracts with public and private sector firms, including the Cabinet Office, to develop their current and future leaders. Through guest speakers, industry visits, case studies and internship opportunities, we seek to give you real-world business experiences and bring you up-to-speed with the issues and challenges facing modern businesses (note that opportunities are subject to availability, application processes, meeting visa requirements, and additional fees may apply).

Upon successful completion, the course can enable you to become a specialist in international business, equipped for a wide range of business and management careers in multinational organisations, management consultancies, government organisations or management education and training.

We aim to develop your capabilities in strategic thinking, effective communication and research, all directly relevant to employers and considered of great value when seeking future employment. The course should provide the opportunity to develop a strategic outlook in a global context and to hone business skills developed in one’s earlier academic studies. All of this has the major objective of facilitating a successful career in management, in either the public or private sector upon successful completion of the course.
