The Bachelor of Business in Beverage Industry Management course develops the student’s knowledge of the concepts and processes that are essential for sound managerial practice in the area, along with imparting operational skills in areas such as drinks service and stylish food preparation and service. Recent changes in the industry have led to the development of modules in brewing and distillation with separate certification from the Institute of Brewing and Distilling. The work placement is a core aspect of the course and allows the student the opportunity to apply the knowledge, insight and skills gained in class to the workplace under the guidance of an experienced industry professional and is supported by the University. The course is taught in a modern building, which is one of the finest tourism and hospitality buildings in Europe and includes a stylish training bar, a demonstration theatre, training restaurants, IT labs and well equipped classrooms. In addition, students have easy access to the wider University facilities such as an excellent library, IT facilities, sports and recreation facilities, and other student supports including a wide array of clubs and societies to suit every student’s interests and tastes. Strong practical content in early years of study, along with our graduates’ broad range of knowledge, skills and competencies, have meant that they are a candidate of choice for a variety of organisations and many have gone on to become entrepreneurs, owning their own successful business.
