Business at Malone College aims to provide a first class education provision to all students to allow the creation of the very best business men and women of the next generation.

Business Studies is a wide and complex subject which allows students to develop a good understanding of Businesses in the real world. It provides students with a better understanding of business through active participation in the business environment through case studies and real life examples of business operations.

Students are encouraged to gain practical, presentational, personal, interpersonal and communication skills prior to beginning their Business journey.

Business Studies will provide learners with knowledge and understanding of how different forms of business ownership operate.

At Malone we want to give students the necessary skills to enter into the real world of business and to flourish.

Business Studies offers an excellent foundation for a wide range of careers in:

• Marketing

• Finance & accountancy

• Management

• Human resource management

• Professional business services

• Customer service

• Self-employment

Furthermore skills developed throughout this course will compliment any chosen career.
