About this course

Business management with financial management is a degree that develops broad organisational understanding alongside specialist knowledge of how businesses are financed, how financial performance is analysed and how financial strategy supports or constrains business decisions. Business management provides the frameworks for understanding strategy, operations, marketing and the human dimensions of organisations, while financial management applies analytical tools to questions of investment, capital structure, working capital, risk and the use of financial information in decision-making. The combination is particularly valuable for graduates who want to move into commercially oriented roles with a financial dimension.

At the University of Hull, this four-year programme with a placement year gives you in-depth knowledge of the financial analysis of business operations alongside the broader understanding of how organisations work. You will develop the ability to identify the right opportunities at the right time, combining commercial awareness with financial acumen. A placement year provides extended professional experience in a business or financial environment, giving you both the practical skills and the professional context that employers value in graduates who are ready to contribute from day one.

Graduates in business management with financial management are well placed for careers in financial management roles within organisations, corporate finance, financial analysis, management consultancy, investment and banking, and a wide range of commercial management roles. The financial dimension of the degree adds particular value for those aiming at roles in treasury, corporate development or business strategy, where understanding financial data and using it to guide decisions is central. Many graduates pursue professional qualifications in finance or accountancy alongside or after their degree.

Postgraduate study in business administration, finance or financial management is available for those seeking further specialisation or senior roles.

This is the perfect place to study this subject. The best part: the opportunity to do independent research in the final year is a highlight. If I'm honest, a few modules feel under-resourced compared to the flagship ones. On the city — loca…
