A HND in Business offers practical, career‑focused training in key areas like marketing, finance, and management, preparing you for the workplace or further study.

Overview

This Higher National Diploma (HND) in Business is awarded by 私房俱乐部 and delivered at our partner institution, Leicester College. On successful completion, you have the option to top up to a full BA (Hons) Business Management degree by completing a third year at the main 私房俱乐部 campus.

  • Career-focused and practical – study core business subjects across disciplines with real-world relevance and application.
  • Tailor your studies – choose a general business pathway or specialise in Marketing or Human Resource Management.
  • Industry placements – gain valuable experience with companies like Rolls Royce, IBM, Walt Disney, the NHS, and Siemens.
  • Successful graduates – alumni go on to roles such as Business Analyst at Capita, Supply Manager at Cummins, and Analyst at Vodafone.
  • Block teaching – study one subject at a time, helping you focus, engage deeply, and enjoy a study-life balance.
Block teaching designed around you

You deserve a positive teaching and learning experience, where you feel part of a supportive and nurturing community. That’s why most students will enjoy an innovative approach to learning using block teaching, where you will study one module at a time. You’ll benefit from regular assessments – rather than lots of exams at the end of the year – and a simple timetable that allows you to engage with your subject and enjoy other aspects of university life such as sports, societies, meeting friends and discovering your new city. By studying with the same peers and tutor for each block, you’ll build friendships and a sense of belonging. Read more about block teaching.
