Course Summary

This course offers a unique approach to Business and Finance studies by incorporating a global perspective into lessons and case studies. This course draws upon historical examples of business to build a stronger understanding of 21st century business practice, including trade, commerce, currencies, and emerging markets.

Lessons will also encourage the development of soft skills and provide hands-on exercises to build leadership, management, teamwork, empathy, and innovation.

Students will also explore strategies for growth in the face of unique challenges, all while building foundational academic knowledge and hands-on experience through case studies and practical learning.

Students will get to experience life as an Oxford University student throughout their stay with us, whether they are attending guest lectures from inspiring speakers, in aspirational lecture halls and auditoriums, or graduating with a formal hall, to waking up in their University accommodation.

The Pre-University Preparation programme provides an immersive and broad University experience.
