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

How you will be taught

All staff are research active and whenever relevant, eg their advisory role in public policy, use their expertise to inform teaching at the relevant level.

Teaching methods include lectures, workshops, group-work and student presentations. Directed reading is an integral part of all modules with credit given for evidence of wide reading in assessments. All modules provide opportunities for you to acquire and practice applicable skills (e.g. problem solving, case study analysis, group working).

How you will be assessed

All modules are assessed through a combination of coursework and final assessment held at the end of each Semester with a re-sit opportunity shortly thereafter. Coursework may account for as much as 40-50% of the overall degree.
