If you’re planning a career in business and want to study a business degree, how do you go about picking a university? There are academic league tables, of course, plus the degree’s curriculum, employment record and, perhaps, location.
But there are also harder-to-measure but equally important factors, such as the culture of a business school and the strength of its connections to industry. For Derby International Business School, collaboration with industry − and making sure that its courses reflect changing technologies, industry skills needs and business practices − is particularly important, as is ensuring its students are in demand by employers.
