BSc (Hons) Business with Management: Grow from Geneva, Switzerland
Build your next chapter without leaving Geneva. Delivered online through an exclusive partnership between the University of Salford and Robert Kennedy College, the BSc (Hons) Business with Management lets you develop business knowledge alongside your work, family life and ambitions. Its ideas and frameworks can be applied in organisations around the world.
Earn a British degree with international recognition
A British degree can be a valuable addition to a career that crosses borders. Studying for an award from the University of Salford gives you a qualification you can present as you explore opportunities in Geneva and beyond.
Whether you hope to progress in an established organisation, change direction or strengthen your understanding of business, the programme offers a foundation for conversations with employers and colleagues internationally.
Complete your studies 100% online in as little as 24 months
Your ambitions do not have to wait until you can relocate or step away from everyday responsibilities. The programme is delivered entirely online and can be completed in as little as 24 months, depending on your study pace and fulfilment of programme requirements.
From Geneva, you can work towards your degree while continuing to build experience where you are. Each period of study becomes an opportunity to connect new perspectives with the decisions and challenges you encounter at work.
Learn without scheduled online attendance
There is no requirement to be online at specific times and dates for live classes. You can engage with your learning when it suits your schedule, whether that is before work, after family commitments or during a quiet weekend.
That flexibility is especially useful when your working day involves changing priorities or colleagues in different time zones. You can organise your study around your life while still planning ahead for coursework deadlines.
Take your studies wherever life takes you
Your classroom can travel with you. Study from Geneva, elsewhere in Switzerland or anywhere in the world with an internet connection, without putting your education on hold when you move or travel.
The mobile app adds flexibility: download study materials and lectures in advance, then read and watch them offline while you are on the move. A journey or a period away from your usual desk can become time invested in your goals.
Show what you know through open-book assessments
Instead of classical question-and-answer exams, the programme uses open-book assessments. They give you the opportunity to consult learning resources as you develop and communicate your responses.
This approach encourages you to focus on understanding, evaluating information and presenting reasoned ideas—skills you can carry into business situations where thoughtful decisions matter more than recalling an answer on demand.
Learn with faculty shaped by renowned universities
The programme's tutors and faculty include graduates of world-renowned institutions such as Oxford, Harvard, EPFL, the University of Basel and Washington University in St. Louis. Their varied academic backgrounds can bring valuable perspectives to your learning.
Engaging with experienced educators can help you question assumptions, clarify ideas and approach business challenges with greater confidence. It is a chance to learn from people whose educational journeys have taken them across disciplines and borders.
Join a community that spans more than 130 countries
Studying online does not mean studying within a single national perspective. A student base from more than 130 countries can expose you to different experiences and ways of thinking—an advantage when you want to apply business theory internationally.
Alumni work for organisations including Université de Lausanne, Nestlé, UBS, Chubb, Zurich, Novartis, Roche, International School of Central Switzerland, Institut Monte Rosa, Institut Florimont, the United Nations, Google, ICRC, The World Bank, Microsoft, Intel, Samsung, Tencent, Siemens and Sony. Their varied workplaces illustrate the breadth of paths represented in the wider community, not a guarantee of employment with any organisation.
Plan your payments with monthly instalments
Investing in a degree is easier to plan when you know how payments can be spread over time. Programme fees can be paid in up to 18 monthly interest-free instalments.
For someone balancing study with living and working in Geneva, that structure can make it simpler to incorporate education into a monthly budget. You can focus on choosing a study plan that fits your goals and circumstances.
Connect your ambitions to Geneva's opportunities
Geneva's private banking, wealth management and commodity-trading sectors bring together organisations working across markets and borders. For graduates seeking to grow in these environments, a stronger grasp of business and management principles can support clearer communication, more considered decisions and collaboration across teams.
The city is also a centre for international organisations and humanitarian work. Whether your interests lie in operations, administration or coordinating projects, the ability to think about how organisations function can be useful when working with diverse stakeholders and complex priorities.
Across the wider Lake Geneva region, life sciences, technology and other internationally connected businesses create further possibilities. The programme's transferable ideas can help graduates approach changing organisations with curiosity and confidence, while their local experience helps them decide where those ideas are most useful.
