Exeter has an excellent reputation with graduate recruiters and a strong employment record. Our graduates excel in specialist computer science fields and across a broad range of other sectors, as shown on our Graduate destinations web page.
We offer a very wide range of opportunities for you to develop the skills employers are looking for, including industrial placements and study abroad. Visit our Careers and employability webpages to find out more.
This degree programme offers an unrivalled platform to launch your career in business, whether you are looking for a high-flying and rewarding career in management consultancy or as an IT professional.
A unique benefit of this degree is the extent of employer involvement which keeps you up-to-date with topical issues facing the IT sector. For example, there is a regular series of ‘guru lectures’ provided by IT professionals in business.
The programme was developed in partnership with the e-skills council of the UK which aims to e nsure that graduates acquire the right combination of business and IT technical skills that are vital to business. Employers in the e-skills UK Board guarantee to interview all ITMB students who meet their minimum criteria for interview.
The programme combines management and business studies with computer science, providing training that will enable you to work at a management level within organisations where computer systems and IT are playing an ever-increasing role. You will be able to apply IT to business situations, evaluate technical knowledge and confidently take on project and team management in IT-related business scenarios. You will learn the skills to interpret and communicate complicated technical ideas to those with less technical knowledge.
The ITMB events organised by e-skills are fantastic. They not only give us amazing opportunities to network with a wide range of employers sponsoring the particular course I'm on, but they also give us the opportunity to help market ourselves and demonstrate to these employers what we can do; whether that be through presentations, demonstrations or group activities.
Exeter ITMB undergraduate
Exeter is one of the top universities in the country with a great reputation for Computer Science and the Business School. I love Exeter and through my course I have had some great opportunities to make contact with employers and to attend networking and competition events.
Lecturers are always willing to help and there is always support available. I hope to gain a place on a Graduate Scheme at a Times Top 100 company.
