Introduction to Newcastle Business School Courses
To study at Newcastle Business School is to be part of a large, vibrant community undertaking a diverse range of structured programmes.
We offer a wide variety of delivery formats to suit very specific needs including full-time, part-time, modular, sandwich and off-campus.
Within this framework we cater for undergraduate, specialist masters and postgraduate research as well as company specific programmes.
All programmes have a strong international focus (many can be studied at one of our partner institutions abroad) and all are taught by professionals with valuable industry experience.
A head start in life
Each programme is continually re-evaluated to ensure it continues to meet the challenges of today's rapidly changing business arena whilst providing students with a highly rewarding learning experience.
The aim is to produce graduates that really differentiate themselves from the competition and enjoy a head start on the competitive career ladder.
The result is that while other graduates are still seeking their first jobs, ours are seeking their first promotion.
'Soft skills'
Increasingly, employers are looking for much more than the traditional 'hard' analytical mind. The ability to listen, understand, talk and persuade has equal weighting.
So does ethical behaviour, team working, change management and effective communication.
Newcastle Business School isn't just about delivering formal qualifications. Our programmes are also designed to develop these critical 'soft skills'.
You will learn how to be persuasive and decisive. You will explore how to appreciate cultural differences, create exterior focus and achieve results through people - all skills designed to give you an edge with modern recruiters.
