| This programme permits the most wide-ranging studies. It has, however, an important underlying theme. All business activities take place within a framework of law. Well functioning legal institutions are crucial to economic progress, and the connection between the legal system and the success of business has been shown repeatedly in the 20th Century. Students taking this programme might be aiming to enter the legal profession by going on to take the Common Professional Examination. Their studies at Buckingham might then lead them to specialise in areas of law such as anti-trust, securities regulation, taxation and so forth. Alternatively, the programme is well suited to students who intend to take an MBA degree before entering business. Of course, the programme is also available to students who simply recognise the interface between law, business and economics as a fascinating and crucially important area. |
