Year 1

Core modules

Business and Luxury Brand Management
Organisational Culture and Reputation Organisational reputation is significantly driven by the organisation’s culture and capability to take care of their key stakeholders, such as customers, suppliers, industry and financial analysts, and current and potential employees. A good reputation will strengthen a brand and lead to greater stakeholder trust, customer loyalty and employee retention.

This module will help you to understand the key characteristics, the types of management and the intertwined nature of organisational culture and reputation. The module will cover concepts and theories of organisational and consumer behaviour, from employee motivation and retention to customer engagement and satisfaction.

This module will also focus on the importance of reputation and how it can enhance a brand and its marketing strategy. It will consider the roles of various stakeholders and the importance of corporate social responsibilities (CSR) to improve an organisation’s reputation.
Money, Finance and Decisions In this module, you will discover both theory and practical application of business techniques to come to successful and informed decisions. You will be exposed to approaches that satisfy professional standards, enabling you to learn how to use these tools to accomplish business goals. The professional analytical skills and techniques will support you in making better business decisions and presentations.

This module will equip you with the knowledge and skills to make effective use of key budgeting, financial reporting, mathematical and statistical techniques applicable to business, finance and management. You will develop the ability and confidence to use numerical and problem-solving techniques and take advantage of information technology tools in the context of business and finance to enhance your future employability.
Markets and Legal Frameworks This module develops your understanding of the legal implications and economic reasoning that underpins entrepreneurial and business activity.

You will explore the relationship between business environments, markets and law and, in doing so, discover key aspects that inform business transactions.

You will learn to understand how competitive consumer markets operate within the context of economics. By exploring the decision-making process and its impact on profits, you will develop an appreciation of how to gauge the macroeconomic performance of a country as well as how a legal system can impact on economic performance.

This module also covers legal principles informing business transactions, commercial entities and consumer rights, the characteristics of a common law legal system and the contractual relationship.
History and Perspectives of Luxury Luxury is an applied concept, deriving from ancient cultures. Still growing, it represents a global industry worth billions. This module will introduce you to the world of luxury, developing a critical understanding of the sector.

Grounded in heritage, luxury strives for excellence both in terms of creativity and performance. This creates timeless and innovative outcomes determined by the artisan’s (or brand’s) DNA. By exploring research and applying theory, you’ll develop new perspectives on luxury and its variations across cultures and markets.

It’s the aspiration, the desire, the promise of a dream associated with luxury, which attract the fascination of audiences and the imitation from other markets. Through knowledge and appreciation, you’ll distinguish between luxury, premium and mass markets.

It has also been synonymous with privilege, prestige, waste and vanity. This module will explore history to reflect on luxury’s effect on people and the environment.

It is the complex nature of luxury, its fabrication of culture and its social significances that make it such an interesting topic of study.
Learning Perspectives This module will encourage you to become a collaborative, critical and reflective learner. Using the distinct lens of your course, you'll examine core questions about how and why we learn the way we do and develop skills essential for university study.

Global Perspectives This module asks you to reflect on one of the most important questions we face: how can we work together to improve the communities we live in? You'll explore a range of contemporary intercultural, political, ethical and social issues that demand collective solutions – working in groups with students from different disciplines and from diverse cultural backgrounds to generate solutions to local dilemmas and global challenges. You'll be required to reflect on this process and develop your understanding of how teams work and how our individual contributions and choices affect the dynamics of the team. You'll consider the benefits of practising empathy and explore the increased potential for arriving at creative solutions when working with people who have different perspectives.

Business and Luxury Brand Management
Developing and Launching a Luxury Business This inspiring, hands-on module equips you with the skills to develop and plan a luxury enterprise of your own. Working collaboratively, you’ll learn by doing –developing both critical commercial awareness and entrepreneurial know-how.

This module combines ideas and concepts from the fields of Entrepreneurship and Innovation. In doing so, it creates a learning environment that allows you to deconstruct taken-for-granted tools, theories and practices by thinking innovatively and “outside the box”.

You’ll be challenged to create valuable solutions to contemporary business problems in luxury brands, develop an innovative business idea in the luxury space and build a business plan to pitch to potential investors.
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.
