Programme Description
This is a two year Master's degree course run jointly by the School of Business, Trinity College and the IMI.
The MSc in Organisational Behaviour is Ireland's premier post-graduate qualification in the area of human behaviour in organisational settings. For more than 25 years our innovations in business education have produced managers and leaders who shape business life in Ireland. Our approach to business education is timeless, not trend based.
The course has a relentless focus on creating value for its participants. Experiential learning and self-development go hand-in-hand with exploring and applying cutting edge theory and integrating it into everyday organisational practice.You will become part of a highly cohesive community of experienced senior managers that shares an interest in increasing organisational effectiveness through people.
It is designed to prepare managers and administrators to meet the challenge of leadership - to simultaneously meet the needs of their organisations and the needs of their people. It brings together the thinking and research of the behavioural and organisational sciences. It produces leaders with superior ability to analyse problems, generate key insights, and implement creative solutions.
