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.
But technology does not just happen on its own; it needs professionals to design, implement and manage technology systems.
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.

You’ll learn important skills during the core units on the course, including programming, system analysis, and data visualisation. You’ll even get to develop your own digital business. As well as the technical side of things, you’ll develop a real understanding of the business environment and how you fit into the industry.
With units focusing on project management, strategy and ethics, we want to make sure you become a well-rounded professional – and a valuable asset to any company.
Towards the end of the course, you’ll have the opportunity to complete your own project. You could act as a consultant for a client, or undertake some original research around an issue you’ve discovered. You could even develop a technological solution to an industry challenge.
With our optional units, you can choose to specialise in a particular area – such as data analytics or project management.
