usiness and management education delivered by ABS members continues to be the most popular single subject of study for students in UK universities. From the latest data (2007/08 HESA), 1 in 7 of all students were studying business and management. This represents 234,000 full-time equivalent (FTE) students at all levels of Higher Education: from Foundation Degree, through traditional three and four year undergraduate courses, specialist Masters, MBAs and Doctorates.


Employers are looking for the key skills including communication, analytical and research abilities, good interpersonal skills and increasingly an awareness of sustainability practices for businesses and research.


So whether you want to work in management consultancy, local government, charity or for any other business, skills from a business management course will place you in a good position to get a job and build a career.


... Your Work Placement? The beauty and power that comes from working together for a single purpose.


What Are Your Future Aspirations? I would like to improve the quality of life for those who have not had the same opportunities I have had. I would especially like to do this using technology and hope to focus on this for my final year project.


There has been a great degree of change in me since I came to Manchester, I understand and believe that I can actually make positive changes in the lives of others.


During my time in Manchester, I have been given a lot; I intend to spend the rest of my life finding ways to give back.
