Location of The University of Edinburgh

Good management is central to business success. Without it, there can be no cohesion, no teamwork, no real sense of direction. This programme is designed therefore to provide an insight into the theories and practical skills needed for successful management and through that - a successful business. It is especially beneficial for those with non-business backgrounds, perhaps in engineering, sciences, social sciences or the arts. It can be equally as effective for those yet to begin their career as those looking to make significant progress in one already begun.

Blending classic management techniques with the very latest in management thinking, the MSc in Management encompasses international issues and diverse national business characteristics and settings.

This intensive and demanding programme is purposely designed towards practice orientation, supplementing the knowledge participants have already acquired - either in business or in their undergraduate studies - with a thorough insight into modern management practice.

Learning Outcomes Students who follow this programme will gain:

* a knowledge framework that will allow them to understand the complexity of managing an organisation in an ever-changing business environment;
* an understanding of how basic theoretical knowledge can be put into practice;
* a critical awareness of discipline-based concepts and approaches to analyse and master contemporary management problems;
* an in-depth knowledge and insights into specific management-related areas;
* the ability to acquire and analyse data and information from a wide range of sources and evaluate their relevance and validity.
