Course programme

Course content

The programme begins with a two week foundation module to bring all students up to a common minimum standard in management and business statistics. The foundation module also introduces you to the university’s learning resources (e.g. the library and study skills support) and encourages you to work in ‘teams’ exchanging your intellectual assets for mutual benefit.

You’ll then study five compulsory modules covering operation and change management, strategic management and organizational analysis, performance measurement and reporting, marketing management strategy, and managing people and organisations. A summer project in your specialist area completes the core modules.

You’ll also take three modules in your specialist pathway (which you will choose after the two-week Foundation module).

Modules of study

Pathways include:
  • Management
  • Management and Finance
  • Management and International Human Resource Management
  • Management and Marketing
  • Management, Strategy and Leadership
  • Management and Entrepreneurship

These specialisms allow you to strengthen your knowledge in a particular area - in addition to the core management modules, you can focus your optional modules on the area in which you wish to specialise.
