Course Overview

The program examines the essentials of management theory and practice and the core principles and practice of business and organizations in a local and international context. You will gain a broad knowledge and expertise in the design and implementation of strategy at different levels of the corporate organization and of other types of organizations such as public, not-for-profit and cooperative. Specialist options provide an overview of the dynamic relationship between international business activities and economic and social development due to the accelerated globalization of national economies. You will then use your critical analysis and independent judgment skills to write a dissertation setting out solutions to complex managerial problems in all types of organizations. This Master's program differs from the typical MBA in that it covers fewer subjects but in more depth. You will learn more than just the current management fashions and buzzwords: you will also learn about the evidence upon which management theories are based. Graduates can pursue careers in management, including the local and national government, business, and industry. Possible professions include chartered management accountant, management consultant, or risk manager. This degree can also be useful in becoming a systems analyst, retail manager, or logistics and distribution manager.
