Program Description
The International Foundation Year is a two-semester programme delivered at the International Study Centre offered by StudyGroup. Upon successful completion of the International Foundation Year, and achieving the required grades, students will join the first year of their chosen undergraduate degree at Liverpool John Moores University.
The pathway to the first year of a business, law or social studies degree
The programme includes academic modules, study skills and English language training, providing complete preparation for their undergraduate degree.
On the Business, Law and Social Studies route, students will:
- learn about the importance of financial management, and the operational and strategic challenges facing the businesses
- gain understanding of the concepts and models of micro-economic and macro-economic analysis
- develop core mathematical skills that will be relevant to their undergraduate degree
- gain business skills, including decision-making and problem solving
- for Law, students will study the English legal system, the mechanics of the legal process, justice and those who administer it.
Over the two-semester programme, students will study a number of core modules that relate to their chosen progression degree. The modules have been designed by expert academics at the International Study Centre, in collaboration with LJMU, to ensure students have the skills they need to succeed upon progression to the University.
The Business Management programme blends contemporary business theory with the practical application of technical business skills.
As a Business Management student, students will become competent in:
- digital analytical expertise
- managing finance with appropriate tools
- understanding financial markets
- people management
- development and marketing of products and services
- planning and project management delivery
The programme has seven core modules at level 4 (first year), which form the essential commercial underpinnings for a global career in the digital business world. After completing this first year, students can then specialise and gain accreditation in their chosen area of expertise.
Students are encouraged to complete an optional year work placement in industry between the second and third year of study. This will provide students with a richer overall experience. It will also significantly enhance their employment prospects upon graduating, as students will have gained work experience that they can draw upon when completing application forms and interviews.
Liverpool Business School has partnerships with business schools at universities and colleges across Europe, in the USA and in China. Liverpool Business School recognises the importance of providing cultural enrichment opportunities for students and offers students on this programme the opportunity to spend a semester in their second year at a partner university abroad as part of their studies. All study abroad opportunities are in English. There are also many supported opportunities for activities at partner universities during summer vacations.
Business simulation tools are used in a number of core modules to replicate real-world work scenarios. Using various applications, students work in small groups and compete to develop the best business strategies for success - including business growth, market dominance, ethical business and sustainability goals.
Throughout each year of the programme, Liverpool John Moores University run a series of networking events with course alumni and industry that allows students to develop with confidence, honing their communication skills and grow their own contacts and business links.
Using Liverpool John Moores University's close business networks across the region, students have the opportunity to act as a consultant, working on live business case projects such as market research, ecommerce, business growth, project delivery, HR legislation, marketing or business ops.
