Course in depth

What you'll study

This online degree, academically directed by the London School of Economics and Political Science, takes you from management fundamentals to applied specialism. You'll usually begin with core business foundations: how organisations work, marketing principles, and business economics with data skills. In your second year, you'll study operations and supply-chain management, organisational behaviour and human resource management, and strategy. By Year 3, you'll choose specialist options such as entrepreneurship, international business, digital business, consulting, marketing, or people and HR. The degree typically culminates in a capstone project or consultancy brief that draws on knowledge across the programme, and may include a live venture or real client work.

How AI is changing the work

AI doesn't replace the profession, it shifts it: routine tasks get automated, while judgement, working with people and using AI well become more valuable.

What AI takes off your plate

  • Routine reporting and data pulls
  • First-draft decks and copy
  • Standard forecasts and reconciliations
  • Scheduling and admin workflows

More human than ever

  • Strategy and judgement under uncertainty
  • Leading, negotiating and selling
  • Sense-checking and owning what AI produces
  • Relationships with clients and teams

The strongest graduates pair subject depth with the ability to use AI tools critically.

International students

What applying to University of London from outside the UK involves: fees, English, visa, funding and living costs.

Tuition fees

International tuition is set per course by University of London; international fees are typically £12,000–£30,000/year for classroom subjects and higher for lab/clinical ones. You’re not eligible for UK Tuition Fee or Maintenance Loans, so plan for fees plus living costs upfront.

English language

Most UK undergraduate courses ask for around IELTS 6.0–6.5 (no band below 5.5–6.0), or an accepted equivalent. If you’re just short, most universities run a pre-sessional English course that counts towards the requirement.

Student visa

You’ll usually need a Student visa (Student Route). After you accept an offer the university issues a CAS; you then show funds for fees plus about £1,023–£1,334/month living costs and pay the Immigration Health Surcharge for NHS access.

Scholarships & funding

Many universities offer international/global scholarships (often £2,000–£6,000/yr), check University of London’s funding pages.

Living costs

Budget roughly £1,100–£1,400/month outside London and £1,400–£1,800/month in London for rent, food and travel; the figure also matters for your visa.

Working while you study

A Student visa usually allows up to 20 hours/week in term time and full-time in holidays, useful alongside study, though not something to rely on for fees.

Visa rules and fees change. Always confirm the current requirements with University of London and gov.uk before you apply.
