The rapid evolution of information and communications technologies has dramatically altered the way in which we manage global business practice, with successful competitive advantage dependent on a company’s ability to effectively harness the ever evolving E-landscape.

Professionals with a key understanding of this specialist area are therefore in increasing demand, having both the practical skills and knowledge to translate the application of these technologies into strategic organisational objectives.

Who is the programme for?

This programme is aimed at graduates of all disciplines (no computer programming experience is required), who are interested in a management career with a strong emphasis on e-business, with a particular prominence given to E-Marketing within this context.

Programme Description

The programme is managed in three parts, the first part consists of 70 credits of compulsory modules (which are undertaken by all E-Business students, including those on the partner E-Business and E-Information systems degrees), and covers the fundamentals of E-Business management including modules such as; Understanding Organisations, Computer Environments; E Business, alongside an Advanced seminar series.

Students then undertake a further 50 credits of specialist modules aligned to their chosen degree programme. For E-Business (E-Marketing) participants, this incorporates subjects such as; Principles of E-Marketing; International Marketing; E-Marketing and Research methods. A 60 credit dissertation is then undertaken in the final semester.
