Business Management and Law 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.

Law

You’ll develop a strong understanding of legal principles while exploring how law connects to society and other disciplines in a practical and exciting way. The course gives you the freedom to follow your interests through optional modules in areas like business law, international law and human rights law. You’ll experience hands-on, practice-focused learning including mooting competitions and the Hope Law Clinic, where you can gain real client experience by providing supervised legal advice to members of the public.

The Moot Courtroom also helps you build confidence in advocacy and courtroom skills. With small-group teaching delivered by qualified solicitors and research-active academics, you’ll receive plenty of personal support and individual attention. This flexible degree builds excellent analytical, research and problem-solving skills that are highly valued across many careers. Combined Honours graduates can still qualify as solicitors via the SQE route without needing a conversion course. If you’re passionate about law and want to combine it with another subject, this course offers the perfect balance of legal knowledge, real-world experience and broader perspectives.
