Bachelor of Arts Business and Events Management (Placement Year)

BA(Hons) Business and Events Management brings together UWE Bristol's recognized expertise in event studies and business management. It's ideal whether students want to specialize in the business of events, or events in business.

Study the main disciplines and operational areas of business alongside specialist modules on event management functions, processes and values. Plan events from inception through to closure and evaluation. Explore areas of the industry including concerts and festivals, conferences and meetings, sporting events, weddings and celebrations.

Bristol is a natural place to study events, with a thriving visitor economy and many businesses involved in event and festival management. Engaging with the local area is an integral part of the learning, teaching and assessment programme.

Event organizations, suppliers and venues provide guest talks, placements, voluntary work and internships. An optional placement year allows students to build contacts and experience, and they'll get a taste of running their own event in a collaborative project in the final year.
