This programme aims to equip students with the current and emerging theories, techniques, and practices of management; to provide a stimulating and intellectually demanding environment, in which students are encouraged to engage with the academic literature, case-studies, and each other, whilst reflecting on their own managerial and business experiences; to prepare students for senior management positions in both public and private sector organisations, and to deal with the demands of complex and rapidly changing contexts.
A mixture of teaching methods is used, including lectures, group work, case study analysis, guided reading, web board interaction and video conferencing. Student performance is assessed through both assignments and examinations.
