What to look for in a course
Compare general business degrees with specialist routes such as marketing, finance and supply chain management. An MBA is distinct from a specialist master’s and may expect professional experience.
Look for practical projects, case-based learning and the depth of quantitative training. Check how placements are organised and whether they are competitive or guaranteed.
Build a shortlist around your intended role: analyst, marketer, operations specialist or founder. Review course modules before relying on the degree title.
Questions to ask before you apply
- What subjects or prior experience does this exact programme require?
- Which modules are compulsory, and how much choice do I have?
