Student review [#28450] for International Business Management
at Queen Mary University of London - QMUL

Although I only completed my first year, my review thus far is the following:

This course can be too general, especially in year one you learn the basics of several fields of business.

Essentially there are tons of subjects to pick from, you will develop a wide range of introductory knowledge in many fields.
However, you do no go in depth in any of those fields and I am afraid that employability wise employeers would not know what exactly to do with you. Do not expect to find a work as a manager straight after graduating.

This course can be too general and I highly suggest that you take the opportunity in year 2 to focus on specialising in a field of business that you liked in year one.

Do not continue to explore too many new subjects, start specialising. Pick modules where you can build on from year one (unless you did not like any of them). If you liked marketing in year one, select marketing related modules in year 2 in order to go more in depth.
Generally speaking the first year was easy. Do go for a postgraduate degree if possible to specialise in field of business. Do not expect to lead a business straight after graduation.
