About us

The Faculty of Business is one of four faculties within the University. It was formed in 2003 through a merger of the former Schools of Business and Computing. We were previously called the Faculty of Business, Computing & Information Management; we became the Faculty of Business in September 2009.

We offer a wide range of courses in the areas of business, management, accounting & finance, and computing & information technology. Most of our courses originated well before the formation of the Faculty, but thanks to our make-up we now have a rather unique blend of business-related and computing-related expertise, and this has enriched all of our courses.

We have strong links with industry and the business world, and our courses are constantly updated to meet new business and technological needs in the workplace. We have an excellent record for the employment of our students. Successful graduates progress to a variety of careers in areas such as accounting, banking, human resources, marketing, public relations, software development, data analysis, mobile computing and web development. 

We have longstanding partnerships with universities throughout Europe, Asia, and other parts of the world, and a truly international student body.

The Faculty also hosts the University's Language Centre and the National Bakery School.
