Developed in collaboration with leading global blue-chip employers, our IT Management for Business is designed to create ‘the ideal graduate’, managing the technologies driving today’s workplace and shaping the direction of organisations for the future. This course straddles the challenging middle ground between business and digital applications, combining strategic, technical, and people-focused perspectives. The uniqueness of the course and its ability to identify crucial skills within a diverse range of industries is recognised by more than 40 employers who uphold its quality and relevance to their sectors. As technologies continue such as artificial intelligence, immersive and extended reality, data platforms, and cybersecurity continue to evolve rapidly, employers increasingly seek professionals who can understand emerging systems and lead those who use them effectively. With a focus on areas including marketing, innovation, sustainability, digital transformation, and more, you’ll be ready to face the challenges of the modern business workplace straight after graduation. AWS, Bank of America, Ford, Fujitsu, IBM, Lloyds Bank, P&G, The Very Group, and many other companies help to deliver the course through project work, student mentoring and a range of professional development activities, such as interview workshops, bespoke networking events and more. This course is also available with a one-year work placement — see [BSc IT Management for Business with Industrial Experience](https://www.alliancembs.manchester.ac.uk/study/undergraduate/bsc-hons-it-management-for-business-with-industrial-experience/) for more information.
