Year 1

Subject Core

Business, Technology and Entrepreneurship, BSc (Hons)
Money, Finance and Decisions In this module, you will discover both theory and practical application of business techniques to come to successful and informed decisions. You will be exposed to approaches that satisfy professional standards, enabling you to learn how to use these tools to accomplish business goals. The professional analytical skills and techniques will support you in making better business decisions and presentations.

This module will equip you with the knowledge and skills to make effective use of key budgeting, financial reporting, mathematical and statistical techniques applicable to business, finance and management. You will develop the ability and confidence to use numerical and problem-solving techniques and take advantage of information technology tools in the context of business and finance to enhance your future employability.
Organisational Culture and Reputation Organisational reputation is significantly driven by the organisation’s culture and capability to take care of their key stakeholders, such as customers, suppliers, industry and financial analysts, and current and potential employees. A good reputation will strengthen a brand and lead to greater stakeholder trust, customer loyalty and employee retention.

This module will help you to understand the key characteristics, the types of management and the intertwined nature of organisational culture and reputation. The module will cover concepts and theories of organisational and consumer behaviour, from employee motivation and retention to customer engagement and satisfaction.

This module will also focus on the importance of reputation and how it can enhance a brand and its marketing strategy. It will consider the roles of various stakeholders and the importance of corporate social responsibilities (CSR) to improve an organisation’s reputation.
Markets and Legal Frameworks This module develops your understanding of the legal implications and economic reasoning that underpins entrepreneurial and business activity.

You will explore the relationship between business environments, markets and law and, in doing so, discover key aspects that inform business transactions.

You will learn to understand how competitive consumer markets operate within the context of economics. By exploring the decision-making process and its impact on profits, you will develop an appreciation of how to gauge the macroeconomic performance of a country as well as how a legal system can impact on economic performance.

This module also covers legal principles informing business transactions, commercial entities and consumer rights, the characteristics of a common law legal system and the contractual relationship.
Technology Bootcamp This module embraces a ‘bootcamp’ ethos – an intense, immersive experience, designed to combine theory and practice in a condensed format, which encourages a learning environment where knowledge is shared with reflexivity and actionable outcomes.

You will focus on the practical application of key technological concepts, whilst being immersed in a technologically oriented environment through intensive and authentic skills-based learning sessions. In this module, you will appraise and analyse key technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning, data analytics, metaverse applications, and immersive technologies (VR & AR). By manipulating and experimenting with these technologies in practice, you will have the opportunity to identify opportunities for innovation and examine in-depth the technological ecossystem. You will learn to identify the opportunities and challenges for these new digital technologies within business and society, whilst also reflecting on the ethical and moral implications of them.
Exploring Industry and Entrepreneurship The world of work is changing fast; in some sectors, AR, AI and automation have already mechanised the work environment. New and different jobs are rapidly being created, generating fresh industry-related and entrepreneurial opportunities. Global crises have accelerated trends, causing many sectors to rethink their approaches to work.

This module provides you with an introduction to the changes being experienced, and the scope of real-world professional activities in relation to your course. Teaching will be delivered by your course team, led by subject experts, and tailored to reflect industry and entrepreneurship in your discipline.

You will develop an understanding of how changing local and global trends impact the current and future worlds of work. The focus will be on exploring your industry or sector and its future, with a view to informing your own potential career or entrepreneurial journey.

In this module, you will be supported by the experts in the Careers, Enterprise and Industry services and the university careers platform, Handshake.
Learning Perspectives This module will develop your curiosity around your chosen degree specialism and encourages you to become a collaborative, critical and reflective learner. You will explore different approaches and key debates around learning and develop skills essential for university study.   

Learning from key thinkers across cultures and time, you will examine core questions about how and why we learn the way we do. You will gain understanding through the distinct lens of your subject and by comparison and sharing of ideas with students from all degree areas.    

To evidence your learning journey, you will create responses to key questions on the areas of the module you find most relevant and inspiring. The skills, knowledge and approaches to learning you develop in this module will support your Regent’s journey and assist you in becoming an active part of your university community.  

Common Modules

In Year 1, you can choose a mix of London Perspectives, Global Perspectives and language modules – you'll need to take two in total from the lists below.
London Perspectives (Autumn Term) In the London Perspectives module, you will explore London through multiple perspectives including your own cultural background and degree discipline. Taking the city as a learning ground, you will learn about London with a historical and contemporary focus through your degree subject (for example business, arts, fashion and media) and interact with the cultures of London through their symbols and neighbourhoods to investigate their impact on London over time. Using teasers inspired by the city of London (for example, a 'Brick Lane' extract, a segment of a visual product, a music extract), you will consider what makes London a world city. You will go on field trips and visit relevant venues in mixed-group activities where you act as guides to your cultures and/or subject, thereby fostering collaborative learning. The module uses London to explore what may unite, rather than divide, our areas of study. Topics and trips include multicultural London, Roman London, financial London and London of fashion and music. ——— You can also choose a language module instead. Choose between Arabic, Chinese, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Portuguese, Russian, Spanish and Business English – all languages are offered from beginner to advanced level.
Global Perspectives (Spring Term) For Language modules, please refer to the list on the course page below.

Subject Core

Business, Technology and Entrepreneurship
New Ventures in Technology This module is designed for the next-generation of problem-solvers, digital disruptors, and visionaries –learning to identify opportunities and shape future shifts and trends.



Adopting a tech-driven mindset, you’ll take a progressive and creative approach to business leadership that involves identifying new commercial and social opportunities, generating resources, testing and planning a new venture. You’ll be encouraged to develop an entrepreneurial spirit, learn what it takes to succeed and how to transform an idea into an enduring invention.

This interdisciplinary module addresses digital innovation development, by combining the best of two approaches. First is the design sprint methodology: a work process for answering business questions through design, prototyping and testing digital ideas. Second is the soft systems methodology: a socio-technical approach used to create innovative digital information systems.

 Using real-world examples, you’ll apply critical thinking to commercialising technologies and the venture creation process.
Disruptive Strategies and Models In an increasingly connected and turbulent world, it is essential for organisations to be able to respond to change strategically.

Strategy is about helping organisations understand what is going on both outside and inside the organisation, where they want to be in the future and how they get there. Organisations evolve business models that optimise the needs of current customers, balancing resources and capabilities with market demands. However, this can overlook the impact of potential new technologies and approaches. Today, disruptive technologies (for example blockchain and nanotechnology) are fundamentally challenging the business models within many industries.

In this module, you will explore how organisations can harness technologies to disrupt and create new business models. You’ll develop the confidence to think strategically, distil the frenzy and identify new and profitable opportunities. It will expose you to the latest strategic approaches so you can think more creatively, innovate and adapt by considering how businesses can create, capture value and disrupt.

You may also choose to relate your Major Project to work you’re completing on your other final year modules.

Major Project II Major Project II is the second Major Project module in your final year. Following the research and development you undertook in Major Project I, you will realise and complete your work in Major Project ll.

The Major Project is your opportunity to apply your discipline-specific and interdisciplinary learning, together with your learning around industry and/or entrepreneurship to a topic of your choice. Through the Major Project, you can realise your ambitions as you prepare to graduate with work that illustrates your aspirations.

You will learn through individual or group supervisions, workshops or studio practice, as appropriate to your project. You may also choose to relate your Major Project to the work you’re completing on your other final year modules.
