What is Information Technology Management for Business?

The IT industry needs individuals with management skills and a sound knowledge of fundamental IT principles and contemporary business practices. Our BSc degree in IT Management for Business fosters exactly those attributes and provides the distinctive blend of computing and business skills that will allow students to operate effectively as graduate professionals. The course is endorsed by e-skills UK, who officially represent the IT industry to the UK Government.

Uniquely, the course offers guaranteed industrial placement within a commercial software development unit, where students are exposed to real software project management.

Structure

The degree covers the fundamental principles of computing relevant to all business IT projects (computer programming, databases, networking and human–computer interaction) and the software development methodologies used in implementing them.

Students are also exposed to relevant business and management skills, including understanding organisational behaviour, financial and business analysis, project planning and management, team working, personnel management and communication. Business, project management and personal skills are as important as technical skills in the structure of this programme.
