Why choose UoG?

Gain essential legal knowledge, leadership and management skills, along with a respected industry qualification. Deepen your understanding of the laws influencing businesses in the UK and internationally.

Top reasons to study this course

The Business and Management (Law) degree course provides essential knowledge of legal issues relevant to business.

Youll identify where potential legal issues and liabilities may arise, as well as understand how the relevant legislation applies in different factual contexts. 

A broad understanding of different legal areas will be established at Level 4, including contract law, tortious liabilities, intellectual property rights and business formation. You will progress to modules on commercial law (sale of goods, consumer protection), company law (company formation, directors’ and shareholders’ rights), and employment law (contracts, workplace equality, termination laws).

This focused business law foundation prepares students to effectively address legal challenges within diverse business environments.

Many businesses value employees with knowledge and understanding of the legal system, and commercial and employability law, alongside the other elements of a business and management degree.

Accredited by the Chartered Management Institute (CMI), this degree includes a Level 5 Diploma in Leadership and Management, equipping you with the skills and experience to succeed in any organisation.

In your first year each module includes at least 3 hours of in-class learning. This is a combination of lectures, where you’ll connect with students from other courses, and interactive small-group seminars.  

These sessions bring learning to life through activities and real-world applications which reinforce key concepts. With plenty of opportunities to ask questions, collaborate, and apply your knowledge, you’ll gain a deeper understanding while building confidence in your skills. 

The course benefits from small class sizes and opportunities for expert mentorship. You’ll also receive personalised support through our Personal Tutor scheme and benefit from career-building opportunities. 

There will be numerous opportunities to forge connections through business networking events and a range of clubs and societies organised by the Students’ Union. 

Your lecturers have a wealth of industry experience that makes lectures engaging, but you will also meet a range of guest speakers and have opportunities to take part in field trips.   

Previous speakers have represented Jaguar Land Rover, Ecotricity, CMI, CIPD, CIM, Enterprise Mobility, and St. James’s Place Wealth Management. Previous field trips include the Business Innovation Expo in London, Forest Green Rovers FC in Stroud, Freixenet Winery in Barcelona, and the IPAG Business School in Nice.  

You’ll graduate with a robust foundation in law and management. Many graduates excel as as general management trainees equipped to steer businesses toward success.

There are diverse career paths available that combine business expertise with legal knowledge in both the corporate world and beyond.
