Tips for choosing the right business course
There are more business degrees on offer than almost any other subject, this presents you with the dilemma of which one to pick. Here are a few tips on things you should look for: Choose a degree at a university you’re excited about studying at. Find a degree that includes a placement year – a year where you can go and work in a company to gain experience. Look carefully at the course content, not all business degrees are the same. Does the university offer the breadth of opportunity that you are looking for? How extensive is the list of electives? Do you already have a particular goal in mind? Does the university have an extensive alumni network?
