The programme starts with a common Postgraduate Certificate stage, shared with other management masters programmes. You'll concentrate on the broad contextual aspects of management. The main themes are people, behaviour, operations geared towards marketing, and information, in which finance is a key component.
In the Postgraduate Diploma and Masters stages you'll concentrate on the more specialist financial modules. Each module is designed to progressively develop your skills and knowledge, and so increase your employability.
The programme culminates in the Independent Study. This is a significant piece of independent study that links the use of financial information to solving managerial problems.
The programme has been developed with local industry and so delivers what employers are looking for in their managers. Our links with industry also means that the concepts and theories you are learning are practically applied to current business situations through case studies, mini projects and assignments. This brings your learning to life.
