Business Management and Dance Bachelor of Arts (with Honours) - BA (Hons)

Please note that Combined Honours degrees at Liverpool Hope University are split 50/50. This means both subjects will be studied equally.

Business Management

Business Management at Liverpool Hope University is all about setting you up for a fast-paced career in modern business. Based at our Hope Park campus, this hands-on business management degree gives you a deep understanding of everything from small startups to global multinational companies across the UK and worldwide. You’ll explore core business principles, management processes, and organisational dynamics, finding out how organisations thrive in uncertain situations.

Our accredited Liverpool Hope Business School holds the prestigious AACSB accreditation, meaning you get a high-quality education informed by the latest research. You’ll dive into key business functions like Human Resource Management, Finance, and Operations Management, while mastering practical marketing strategies like the 4Ps. A standout feature is the unique Young Enterprise (YE) initiative in year two, where you’ll join a team to launch and run an actual legal startup. It's the ultimate way to build confidence, gain real-world industry know-how, and sharpen the transferable skills top employers look for in Liverpool, the North West, and beyond.

Dance

If you're passionate about performance, choreography and creative practice, our Dance degree will help you develop the skills, confidence and professional experience to build a career in the contemporary dance industry. 

From your first year, you'll take part in daily dance technique classes while exploring choreography, performance and dance as a creative and research-led discipline. You'll have opportunities to perform as part of an undergraduate touring dance company, gain industry experience through a placement with the English National Ballet and develop your own creative voice through dance for camera, site-specific performance and Practice as Research. 

As your interests evolve, you'll have the flexibility to choose option modules in Years 2 and 3 before defining your own specialist pathway in your final year. Throughout the course, you'll be taught by experienced academics and practitioners who support you in developing both your artistic practice and your professional skills. 

With a strong focus on employability, practical experience and independent creativity, you'll graduate with the knowledge, performance experience and confidence to pursue a wide range of careers across the dance sector or continue your studies at postgraduate level.
