Course in depth
What this course covers, who it suits and where it leads.
What you'll study
This degree combines business management fundamentals with hospitality and tourism specialisation. You'll usually start with core modules in management, marketing and business economics, building data and analytical skills alongside an understanding of how organisations work. In year two, you'll progress to operations, strategy and organisational behaviour, where you'll examine supply chains, competitive advantage and managing people. From year three onwards, a course like this normally moves toward specialist options in areas such as entrepreneurship, international business, digital business, consulting, marketing, or people and HR. Alongside these, you'll undertake innovation and entrepreneurship modules and a capstone consultancy project or dissertation, typically involving a real client brief or live venture that draws together what you've learnt across the degree.
Who it's for
This course suits students interested in business management within the hospitality and tourism sectors. Most entrants held A-levels or equivalent qualifications; the typical UCAS tariff among accepted students was more than 240 points. You should have a genuine interest in enterprise, customer-facing operations and strategic management in these industries. The course is full-time, so you'll need to commit to study on campus.

International students
What applying to Strathclyde from outside the UK involves: fees, English, visa, funding and living costs.
Tuition fees
International tuition is £22,750 / year for this course (from the provider’s fee page). 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
Strathclyde offers the Faculty of Engineering International Scholarship (15% reduction in tuition fees) for international students, see Scholarships above.
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 Strathclyde and gov.uk before you apply.
