Undergraduate Study
The BA in Management and Entrepreneurship at Lancaster University provides a broad appreciation of management theory and practice, placing the study of entrepreneurship and family businesses in a broad social and historical context. This course can provide a logical step for developing business skills in those from a background of family business, who can apply them back into their own family business or to help secure another role on graduation.
Alumni Profiles
An undergraduate module in Family Business (ENTR 314) is offered as a compulsory course to all students majoring in Entrepreneurship, and as an option for other Management School students. Confronting theory with practice through case study material and direct contact with family business owners, this module draws on a wide range of management disciplines to provide understanding of the specific issues faced by family businesses.
“Growing up in a family that ran its own business, for me studying entrepreneurship was a logical and interesting choice. LUMS’s reputation as one of the UK's leading management schools was also important. A green-field site with a lively city close by also makes Lancaster a great place to study."
