How are the elective courses structured?
In your first year you may take between one and four business or language electives. By the time you graduate you must have completed a minimum of nine and a maximum of 12 electives. The majority of your elective study is in the second year. You will be asked to choose your second year electives towards the end of the first year summer term, and to confirm (or change) these choices before you return to London Business School at the beginning of the second year. You will choose from a portfolio of 70+ electives drawn from all subject areas. View our current elective portfolio. However you will be able to make changes within agreed deadlines throughout the second year to allow you to react to your experiences and tailor your study accordingly. You can structure your choice of electives in any way you want, for example selecting courses by subject area or how they support your career path. To help in this, from this year you will be able to follow an Elective Concentration.
