WHY BSC BUSINESS? BSc Business is our brand new degree with an ethos of ethics and sustainability being offered by the University of Exeter Business School at our Penryn Campus in Cornwall. The programme is designed to address the challenges in growing businesses in the current climate changing era. The challenge you will face and learn is how to help businesses, government and social enterprises better integrate the needs of the planet, people and profits in the short and long term. We will help you develop a set of graduate skills and attributes which are hugely relevant to 21st century businesses, from a local and global perspective. This will prepare you for a professional career in a wide range of sectors including e-commerce, marketing, environmental consultancy and social enterprise.
You will put theory into practice by maximising the advantage of the unique Cornwall environment to provide a detailed understanding of the practical areas of Business and Management which will include volunteering, work based practice and consultancy.
WHAT WILL I STUDY? Our curriculum is made up of a core of compulsory subjects and specialist subjects, allowing you to shape your degree to your preference and to choose modules most relevant to you. COMPULSORY MODULES
The staff that will teach you are dynamic researchers with expertise in a diverse range of business and management topics including those with direct impact on the local area such as sustainability, entrepreneurship, creativity, social sciences, and tourism.

n Our BSc Business at the Penryn Campus is enabled through our links with three Cornwall-based University research centres: the Centre for Ecology and Conservation is addressing the factors that challenge biodiversity in the natural world; the University’s European Centre for Environment and Human Health works with business on responsible business practice, resilience and productivity in the workplace; and the Environment and Sustainability Institute (ESI) brings together advanced resources with leading academics to pioneer cutting-edge research into solutions to problems of environmental change.
n The campus has a growing sense of momentum which means the recruitment and retention of more world class academics than ever before. Their excellence is matched by their approachability; students at Penryn Campus say that they enjoy the easy access to enthusiastic and friendly academics
