Program overview
A master degree in international business, covering global strategy, cross border operations, international marketing, trade environments and an applied business project.
London Met runs this in a standard version and one paired with project management, both at GBP 20,500, so compare the modules rather than the titles.
Master of Science - International Business Management is taught at the University of London Met, a public university in England with full degree awarding powers. Because the international business management masters is a degree, it supports an application under the UK Graduate Route, which gives two years of unsponsored work in Britain after you finish. No job offer or sponsor is needed for the international business management masters, but you must be inside the UK on a valid student visa when you apply. Your student visa covers the length of the international business management masters plus a short period afterwards. UK rules from January 2024 bar a dependant partner or child on taught courses, so the international business management masters does not support a family move.

The English requirement is IELTS Academic 6.0 overall with no band below 5.5, and tuition for the international business management masters is recorded at GBP 20,500.

Admission requirements
Who can apply (guide for international students):
- Education: A completed bachelor degree or equivalent, at the percentage stated.
- English (meet any one): IELTS Academic 6.0 overall with no band below 5.5; TOEFL iBT 72 with reading 18, writing 17, speaking 20 and listening 17; PTE Academic 59 in every component; or the Duolingo English Test at 105, which London Met does accept.
- Application and deposit: London Met charges NO application fee, so applying costs you nothing. Confirm the tuition deposit and its refundability in writing before any money is transferred.
- Scholarship: London Met applies an India Bright Futures Scholarship worth GBP 5,000 to eligible Indian students automatically, with no separate application form. You apply for the course as normal and the award appears on your offer if you qualify. Confirm the figure on that offer rather than assuming it, and check the eligibility conditions for your intake before budgeting around it.
- Additional requirement: London living costs and the UKVI maintenance requirement are both higher than for study elsewhere in Britain. Budget for the London figure rather than the national one.
