MSc International Business

University of Hertfordshire

The MSc International Business (Standard Pathway) is designed for students who want to gain a comprehensive understanding of global business operations in a condensed timeframe. You’ll explore key areas such as marketing, finance, HRM, entrepreneurship and supply chain management. Instead of a traditional dissertation, you’ll complete a business simulation project that mirrors real-world consultancy work - ideal for students who prefer applied learning over academic research. This pathway is perfect for students seeking a traditional UK master’s degree completed in just one academic year. Global business focus: You’ll study a wide range of subjects from a holistic international perspective, including economics, digital marketing, and innovation. Practical and applied: The business simulation project replaces the dissertation, giving you the chance to apply your learning to real-world business scenarios. Career-ready skills: You’ll graduate with a strong mix of analytical, strategic and communication skills - ready to step into roles across global markets. Location advantage: Our location near London gives you access to one of the world’s most dynamic business ecosystems, with opportunities to attend events, network, and explore career options.
