| Business I: Enterprise in Action – Fundamentals in Context |
This module is essential for you to understand how businesses operate and are managed. Your learning will be highly experiential and, from the outset, your focus will be to launch and run a live business-start-up with other team members. You will explore core principles and concepts from the world of business, identifying both internal and external factors that contribute to both business success and failure. You will then assess and apply these to your own business model. You will face challenges that range from developing your USP and raising finance, to understanding marketing options. The module will culminate in a dynamic investor pitch designed to test your idea. The ability to work with others will also be a key feature throughout. You will examine leadership and management styles and explore how team dynamics affect the business culture, while also identifying your own strengths and attributes and reflecting on your own performance. |

You will explore aspects such as style, register, structure and referencing, and learn to harness digital tools to aid your writing. In this module, you will take on board feedback and use it to develop further.

The module will encourage you to engage with specific case studies, and provide a broader understanding of the social, political and economic contexts that contribute to the place of culture in society. |
| Politics, Society and Citizenship | In this module, you will be introduced to the basic principles of politics, society and citizenship. What is society, and how is it shaped by politics?

| Enterprise Planning |
Enterprise planning is the process of scanning the external environment to identify potential market opportunities, as well as marshalling appropriate organisational resources and competencies to create a profitable offering. The business plan is what combines these external (customer-facing) and internal (capability-based) perspectives. This module is inherently multi-disciplinary –combining elements of marketing, finance, operations and human resources to balance these internal and external perspectives. These approaches are valid both for the creation of new SME-based offerings, or offerings launched from larger existing companies. You’ll learn how to identify a potential market opportunity and the capabilities required to support it. You’ll also learn how to iterate between these elements to refine your offering – for instance, seeing the cost implications of adding or subtracting certain features. Finally, you’ll learn how to work together to construct a business plan for a new profitable offering. |
| Disruptive Strategies and Models |
In an increasingly connected and turbulent world, it is essential for organisations to be able to respond to change strategically. Strategy is about helping organisations understand what is going on both outside and inside the organisation, where they want to be in the future and how they get there. Organisations evolve business models that optimise the needs of current customers, balancing resources and capabilities with market demands. However, this can overlook the impact of potential new technologies and approaches. Today, disruptive technologies (for example blockchain and nanotechnology) are fundamentally challenging the business models within many industries. In this module, you will explore how organisations can harness technologies to disrupt and create new business models. You’ll develop the confidence to think strategically, distil the frenzy and identify new and profitable opportunities. It will expose you to the latest strategic approaches so you can think more creatively, innovate and adapt by considering how businesses can create, capture value and disrupt. |
| Major Project l |
The Major Project is the culmination of your studies. You will study Major Project I in the first term of your final year and Major Project II in the second. Each module comprises 20 credits. Together, the two modules form one project. The Major Project is a substantial piece of work, drawing on your discipline-specific and interdisciplinary learning, together with your learning about industry and entrepreneurship. You will have the freedom to design a self-directed project that reflects your interests and career aspirations. You may also choose to relate your Major Project to work you’re completing on your other final year modules. In Major Project I, you will start the term developing a proposal for your Major Project, supported by your tutors. Following your proposal, you will begin work on your Major Project, learning through individual or group supervision, workshops or studio practice, as appropriate to your project. |
| Major Project II |
Major Project II is the second Major Project module in your final year. Following the research and development you undertook in Major Project I, you will realise and complete your work in Major Project ll. The Major Project is your opportunity to apply your discipline-specific and interdisciplinary learning, together with your learning around industry and/or entrepreneurship to a topic of your choice. Through the Major Project, you can realise your ambitions as you prepare to graduate with work that illustrates your aspirations. You will learn through individual or group supervisions, workshops or studio practice, as appropriate to your project. You may also choose to relate your Major Project to the work you’re completing on your other final year modules. If you are working on an entrepreneurial project for your Major Project, you may be able to join the Founders Programme, which supports students and graduates interested in starting their own business with tailored guidance, coaching, mentoring, and access to experiential bootcamps and live events. |
