Business Technology BSc (Hons)

**OVERVIEW**<br/><br/>As technology has increasingly become part of every business, data has become the new oil and businesses are striving to make the most of it in order to gain a competitive and lasting advantage. <br/><br/>But technology does not just happen on its own; it needs professionals to design, implement and manage technology systems. <br/><br/>Our BSc (Hons) Business Technology degree gives you the skills needed in a modern business environment. You’ll learn to identify business challenges, find technological solutions, manage technology projects and services, and analyse business data. This is an area that’s constantly evolving, so we’ll give you the tools to adapt to new ideas and new ways of working. <br/><br/>**Discover your talents**<br/><br/>With a wide range of topics, and the choice of optional units in other areas, you can really explore your interests. Business analysis, app development, e-commerce and project management – whatever you want to specialise in, you’ll have the chance to develop a strong knowledge base. <br/><br/>As well as vital business skills such, as global strategy and technology management, you’ll also learn about some of the biggest technologies of today. Cloud computing with Amazon Web Services (AWS), programming languages, and databases all feature on the course. <br/><br/>**Develop in areas that are in demand**<br/><br/>Many organisations are struggling to make the most of digital technology. They know it can transform their business, but they don’t know how. We designed this programme so you have the potential to support, and eventually lead, them through the digital transformation process. <br/><br/>There is also opportunity to specialise in routes with more emphasis on technology development, data analytics, project management and social media marketing. All of which continue to be in high demand in organisations. <br/><br/>**FEATURES AND BENEFITS**<br/>- **Triple accredited** – our business school holds the globally recognised trio of accreditations from EQUIS, AACSB and AMBA, placing us among the best business schools in the world. <br/><br/><br/>- **Enhance your employability** – through activities including internships, volunteering or learning a new language. With our award-winning ‘Rise at Manchester Met’ programme you can gain extra academic credits towards your degree. <br/><br/><br/>- **Placement or study abroad flexibility** – you will enrol on the three-year course and decide if a placement or overseas study is right for you once you have started your studies, so you don’t have to decide now. <br/><br/><br/>- **Practical projects** – take on practical projects, including building a web or mobile app and a prototype ecommerce system. You can also tackle a consultancy project for a live client. <br/><br/><br/>- **Specialise in your area of interest** – specialise further with our targeted routes through the programme, such as technology development or data analytics, and through your choice of optional units. <br/>
