Help with BSc Management & Digital Innovation (University of London/LSE)

Not sure what you mean by 'University of London but with direction from LSE'? is it actually a degree offered by London School of Economics? I could not find the degree, 'Management and digital innovation' that you mentioned. However, A Bsc Management degree is not the same as Bsc Management Information Systems. Bsc Management is a business course with core modules such as -Financial Accounting, Operations management, Principles of Economics, Marketing.. it is more similar to a Bsc in Business Management but focussing on skills needed to become a good manager (not that you will be a manager upon graduation!!!! )


Bsc Management Information systems is more about how 'systems' are used in business or the use of Information systems in a business environment to support good decision-making. I'd expect you to do core modules such as - Data analysis,Systems analysis, business stats, accounting etc skills that will equip you with the expertise needed to run an efficient business using key business applications/technology.

The 'digital Innovation' part of the degree is fairly self explanatory.

There is overlap between both courses but depends on where you are studying it. I would expect LSEs course to be strongly theory focussed as well as quantitative in nature.

I was referring to this course: https://www.london.ac.uk/courses/management-and-digital-innovation

The University of London offers a whole spectrum of different courses in a variety of topics. These courses are made by collages under the University of London such as LSE, Royal Holloway, Goldsmiths etc, but the degree's awarding body is University of London (and not LSE). It took me a while to wrap my head around how this works, but from what I've understood, University of London has 17 member institutions (of which LSE is one of them) and they're only responsible for making the course (in terms of structure, content) and you will not be a student at LSE, but rather a student at University of London.

The Management and Digital Innovation course does have all the things you would expect from a typical business management degree (such as Econ, Accounting, Marketing etc) and it has some IT themed modules but they're neither business courses nor are they the typical courses you'd expect in a Management Information Systems degree (such as data analytics or programming etc). Which is why I'm posting on this forum, since I can't seem to figure out what sort of career path this is degree is for (and the career prospects listed on UOL's website are quite vague.

Information about this degree (including alumni experiences) are very hard to come by, almost as if no one has done this degree before.
