Business management

Now, more than ever, the world needs good business leaders, able to plan, act, and get results.

Salford Business School offers one of the most practical university educations, preparing you for a future career where your abilities with digital technology, creative thinking and soft skills are as important as your subject knowledge. Studying with us, you'll enhance your professional expertise by networking with our industry partners, applying your knowledge during work placements, and accessing various hands-on opportunities. We'll also support you in developing the soft skills employers are looking for, including teamwork, communication, leadership, technology, and ethical practice. 

Business management is a fascinating and varied area to work in. Wherever your interest lies, we have a programme to nurture your passion and challenge you. Career opportunities are growing across the sector, particularly in digital business, marketing, and project management. Good digital skills are consistently identified as being in short supply; in response, our programmes consider how technology is changing the way we work and creating new job opportunities. 

We encourage you to take full advantage of the professional placement year (where available). During this time, you'll earn a salary, not pay university fees, and gain unparalleled experience to add to your CV.
