Course Description:

'' The programme is organised into three stages. The first stage has been designed around the functional disciplines of management. A priority will be to introduce the various management literatures and begin the process of developing the language of management and the core concepts within the disciplines.


At the end of Stage One, successful students will be able to demonstrate a number of transferable intellectual skills, including:
an understanding of the body of knowledge within the main functional disciplines of management and the ability to select from these, approaches that have potential in specific situations;
competence in employing a variety of approaches and perspectives in problem solving and decision
the ability to reflect on and learn from practice using the more refined ideas from the different management disciplines;
an ability to work effectively in groups to resolve problems, take decisions, or communicate ideas;
confidence as an independent learner with an appreciation of self-knowledge.
In Stage Two, subject material in the core disciplines becomes much more integrative in nature and the programme also considers different aspects of strategic management in some depth via a programme of elective units. In Stage Three, students select one of two routes. Students can undertake a dissertation - a sustained piece of academic work - or they can elect to undertake a consultancy project.

At the end of Stages Two and Three successful students will be able to demonstrate a range of transferable intellectual skills, including:
the ability to take an organisation-wide perspective and to develop integrated policies and practices of a general management nature;
a broader understanding of the decision making process at various levels within an organisation;
a capacity to deal with complexity and ambiguity through the development of approaches to critical thinking;
the confidence to examine critically knowledge in the social sciences and to use this to reflect upon and improve managerial practice;
an ability to learn, to become conscious of the concepts being used, how these are formed, and how they might be changed. ...''
