Core management skills are in high demand in our rapidly changing environment. Successful managers need to know how people behave, the nature of leadership and sources of power and influence within the workplace. They must also plan, prioritise, develop new processes and identify new opportunities. Thats why our MA provides a broad understanding of business – from finance and people management to operations, communications and marketing. Youll graduate with the all-round expertise and decision-making capabilities required to lead modern organisations.

Whether you aim to be self-employed heading your own company, work for private businesses, or not-for-profits or government agencies, this course is designed to develop the necessary management skills to succeed in a rapidly changing economic environment. This course will therefore open flexible career avenues or will enable you to take the next step to progress your career.

Blending theory and practice, our teaching is designed to equip you with the knowledge, competencies, analytical and problem-solving skills around the management of organisations and how to apply these to management problems and situations. As the course progresses, you will study operational, tactical and a more strategic approach to management.

Youll study other organisations processes and practices, which helps you understand why companies have been successful or have experienced turmoil over the years. Youll have access to a wide range of electronic and online media resources, as well as traditional face-to-face teaching and opportunities to learn from one another.

A highlight for many students is the Management Residential – a weekend combining presentations and workshops with great opportunities to network, get to know your fellow students and learn from each others experiences. Youll be given a series of tasks designed to develop essential skills, such as team building, leadership, delegation and communications.

When you graduate, youll have the core management skills needed to give you flexibility to pursue a career in general management or specialist areas of business, including financial services, operations, human resources, sales and marketing. Graduates from this course have found employment at organisations including Accenture, Procter & Gamble and Unilever, as well as the NHS and local councils, while others have set up their own companies.

Careers:

Core management skills are in demand from a wide range of employers across private, public and not-for-profit sectors. As a graduate, youll be equipped to pursue a general management career or choose to specialise in specific areas of business, including financial services, operations, human resources, sales and marketing.

Our graduates occupy a variety of roles in both multinational organisations and small and medium-size enterprises, employed in companies such as Accenture, Procter and Gamble and Unilever, as well as the NHS and local councils.

A minimum of a lower second class honours degree (2:2). We do not specify a required degree subject with cohorts ranging across the degree disciplines. Previous cohorts have seen a range of degree subjects ranging from philosophy and history through business studies to computing or engineering. The primary requirement is the aptitude and motivation to engage with subject areas that are new, allied to an appreciation that some subject areas may require greater engagement than others in order to successfully complete the course. We will also consider applicants with alternative professional qualifications and Continuing Professional Development records. And similarly, we would those with at least three to five years relevant professional experience to qualify on this basis, you will need to be able to demonstrate clear career progression with an upward trajectory. This should include increasing responsibilities, particularly the control of resources, people, and finance. Applicants relying on work experience for admission will be interviewed to determine their suitability, motivation and aptitude for study on the courses within the programme. For non-standard entry, the course leadership team may interview applicants who may be required to complete a written piece of work.
