About this course

Business management and computing is a dual-discipline degree that prepares you for the increasingly digital nature of modern organisations. Every business now depends on digital systems, and the most effective professionals in management and strategy are those who understand both the commercial goals those systems need to serve and the technical possibilities and constraints they present. This degree develops your understanding of both domains, giving you the versatility to work at their intersection.

Aberystwyth University's three-year full-time BSc Business Management and Computing provides a full understanding of the fundamentals of business alongside exploration of how organisations, employees, and other stakeholders engage digitally, as the course itself describes. The emphasis of the computing component is on human-computer interaction, effective development, and the management of digital systems in organisational contexts, covering software, hardware, and computing techniques within a business frame. You will study core business management areas including marketing, finance, human resource management, and strategy, alongside computing topics such as systems analysis, database design, web development, and digital business.

The typical entry tariff is 104 points.

Graduates work in roles that sit at the junction of business and technology: business systems analyst, IT project manager, digital operations manager, e-commerce manager, and business analyst are among the most common pathways. The combination of management knowledge and computing competence is attractive to employers across financial services, retail, healthcare, logistics, and the public sector, all of which are investing heavily in digital transformation. Postgraduate study in information systems, business analytics, or management is an option for those wanting to develop their expertise further.
