International Business and Management

International business and management is a discipline that prepares you for the realities of commercial activity in a world where markets, supply chains, organisations, and talent are increasingly global. It combines the core knowledge of business and management, covering strategy, operations, finance, marketing, and organisational behaviour, with a serious engagement with the international dimensions of commercial life, including trade theory, cross-cultural management, global governance, and the complexity of operating across different legal and economic environments.

At the University of Dundee, this three-year, full-time degree offers small class sizes and a genuinely international focus, creating an environment in which you engage closely with tutors and fellow students from diverse backgrounds. Hybrid learning approaches complement the in-person experience, and a year abroad is incorporated into the programme, giving you the opportunity to study at a partner university in another country and develop the global perspective that the degree's international orientation emphasises. A typical entry tariff of 184 points reflects the programme's strong academic expectations, and you will develop real-world skills in commercial analysis, communication, and strategic thinking throughout your studies.

Graduates of international business and management degrees are well positioned for careers across multinational companies, trade and export bodies, international financial services, management consultancy, public sector organisations with international remits, and non-governmental organisations operating across borders. The combination of management competence and cross-cultural awareness is genuinely versatile, and graduates work in sectors ranging from logistics and supply chain to marketing, human resources, and corporate strategy. Postgraduate study in international business, an MBA, or a specialist management field is also a common progression for those seeking leadership roles or professional qualifications.
