Business English (international Route) - BA (Hons)

University of Chichester

This programme is for international students who have successfully completed 2 or 3 years of degree studies (to HND or associate degree level) in fields such as Communication Studies, Journalism, English Language (or related fields) and who wish to ‘covert’ to Business-related studies and complete their degree studies in the UK. The programme combines business content-based studies with the development of English, academic skills, intercultural skills, and independent research skills. The programme prepares students for further English-medium study at master’s level and for vocational work in English-medium global environments. The programme is delivered in small, interactive classes (maximum 20 students for language-based studies) where there are many opportunities for discussion, asking questions and getting to know tutors well. Students receive regular individual tutorials, support with settling in the UK and advice on further UK-based studies. We also provide presessional programmes for students whose English language level is below IELTS (equivalent) 5.5.
