This degree programme will give you a strong grounding in the major areas of business while developing your foreign language skills and your understanding of a major European business centre. After graduating, you will be prepared for professional roles in the public and private sectors in the UK and internationally. This degree examines the key themes and emerging challenges facing business in a global context, with a special emphasis on French culture. Progressive business-focused modules span areas including strategy, marketing, finance, organisational behaviour and human resource management. Throughout the degree you will develop a high level of understanding of written and spoken French and gain a deep understanding of the country's culture and business practices. This degree provides you with the opportunity to take a one-year industry placement in France between your second and final year of study, which we encourage students to do. You will also have the chance to study at a French university. A degree from Henley Business School is respected internationally and can provide a route into many areas, including accounting and professional services, banking, consultancy, finance, human resources, IT, investment banking, marketing, operations and, of course, general management. The experience of studying or working abroad also distinguishes you from non-language graduates, providing evidence of self-reliance, adaptability and enterprise.
