Drawing upon the Department of Management's areas of research expertise, our MSc Management with Corporate Governance and Business Ethics provides a solid grounding in key aspects of business and management while allowing you to specialise through a range of option modules focusing on corporate governance and business ethics.
The programme examines the essentials of management theory and practice and the core principles and practice of business and organisations in a local and international context. You will gain a broad knowledge and expertise in the design and implementation of strategy at different levels of the corporate organisation and of other types of organisation such as public, not-for-profit and cooperative. Specialist options provide an overview of the complex and changing relationships between business corporations, their stakeholders and the societies in which they operate.
You will then use your critical analysis and independent judgement skills to write a dissertation setting out solutions to complex managerial problems in all types of organisation.
This Master's programme differs from the typical MBA in that it covers fewer subjects but in more depth. You will learn more than just the current management fashions and buzzwords: you will also learn about the evidence upon which management theories are based.
