  Programme
  
  Year one
  
  The first year of BA Management Studies serves as a broad foundation to the study of a range of business disciplines, and includes core modules in entrepreneurship, financial accounting, management accounting, organisation studies, business economics, economy policy, business computing, and quantitative analysis. Students also take two optional modules.
  
  Key to the philosophy of Management Studies is the integration of the teaching of traditional business disciplines with the study of contemporary business issues. This is evidenced most strongly in the first year with the inclusion of the core modules Entrepreneurship and Business and New Venture Creation.
  
  The entrepreneurship modules are taught by The University of Nottingham Institute for Enterprise and Innovation (UNIEI), which was established in 2000 as part of an Office of Science and Technology initiative to create several world class centres of excellence in entrepreneurship education. Business ideas formulated in the Entrepreneurship and Business module are developed further in the New Venture Creation module.
  Possibilities then exist for some students to take their ideas a stage further with support from UNIEI in their 'learning about business' lab.
  
  Year two
  
  The second year of BA Management Studies includes core modules in management and organisation, management accounting, marketing, technology and organisation, business economics, and the economics of decision making. Students also take four optional modules.
