Course content

Our BSc Politics and Business is designed to equip you with the critical knowledge needed to navigate the intersection of business, politics, and policymaking. As global challenges such as political upheaval, geopolitical instability, climate change, and economic transformation intensify, it is crucial for business leaders to understand political processes and for policymakers to grasp the dynamics of business management.

Through this interdisciplinary programme, you will explore how political and economic shifts around industrial policy, sustainability, and corporate governance impact business and government alike.

The course offers a balanced blend of theoretical insight and practical experience, aimed at fostering employability across a wide range of professional contexts, including government, NGOs, consultancy, and public relations.

The curriculum integrates core topics such as public policy, project management, political communication, and business strategy, allowing students to specialise in areas like environmental sustainability, digitalisation, political psychology, and organisational leadership. Additionally, you can gain real-world experience through work placements and professional development modules, enhancing your practical skills and career readiness.

Delivered exclusively at our Penryn Campus (Cornwall), this programme benefits from the campus's focus on innovation, sustainability, and interdisciplinary research. You will engage with key themes such as environmental governance, social entrepreneurship, and workplace democracy, drawing on the latest research to address pressing issues.

The programme’s unique setting in Cornwall offers a dynamic and supportive learning environment, while the small student community fosters close interaction with academic staff, allowing you to actively debate and refine your ideas.
