Business Management

International Year One – Business Management

The International Year One in Business Management at Alvis Pathway offers an academic experience equivalent to the first year of a university undergraduate degree. This program develops a strong foundation in key areas of business while helping students build essential management and analytical skills.

As part of the program, students also complete an integrated English for Academic Purposes (EAP) module, which supports language development for academic success and may be recognized in place of standard English proficiency tests such as IELTS.

Successful students will be eligible to progress directly into the second year of a bachelor’s degree in business-related fields at one of our Network’s partner universities, with access to a wide range of degree options.

This course is also available as a specialized module within the Foundation Year Program, providing flexibility for students who are exploring multiple academic routes.
