Business Information Technology 2010 Entry

Honours Degree
Modern business relies on information technology, those who understand both are in high demand. Our course equips you with the skills and knowledge to meet that demand.
The course will show you how business strategy and IT can be blended to solve real problems. You’ll learn how IT is changing the way we work and live, and discover the new business opportunities that it brings. We’ll show you how businesses can use IT to improve performance and ensure sustainability, and you’ll gain a strong understanding of subjects that no modern business can ignore, such as business decision support, e-business and IT strategy.
As the course progresses, you can make it as technical or non-technical as you wish. You can study technical aspects such as designing and building information systems, or you might prefer to specialise in less technical aspects such as the impact of IT on society and business.
Whichever path you choose, you will gain career enhancing skills, not just in business information technology, but also in strategic thinking, team building and project management. If you choose the degree+ route, an optional one-year paid work placement enables you to use new skills in a real-world context.
