Our teaching methods focus on the use of group work, which requires students to investigate and experience management issues through interaction with external organisations. Students are supported to take increasing responsibility for their learning and development through managing individual and group assignments, and by developing a personal portfolio of evidence demonstrating their progress. This programme integrates key elements of the learning process, equipping you with both knowledge and skills within the management field. This integrated approach gives you a thorough grounding in management knowledge and understanding, while also providing you with the necessary skills to apply that knowledge in a practical context. Successful companies today are highly market-oriented and highly adaptable.
Professionalism is required.
This programme is designed to promote just such behaviour, with a heavy premium on individual responsibility and 'team players'. This should enable successful students to 'fast-track' their careers into graduate management positions. The design and content of the curriculum is firmly located within an Action-Learning framework and has been developed using the National Vocational Standards for Management. Learning is encouraged and supported through a combination of lectures, workshops, tutorials, individual and group projects and self-directed study. We welcome applications from individuals with non-standard qualifications who can demonstrate the ability to cope with, and the motivation to benefit from, degree level studies.
