Curriculum Structure

Year of Study

During the first part of the programme, you’ll develop your understanding of core business functions and how they influence organisational success. Modules such as Leading and Managing People, Managerial Finance and Global Business Strategy introduce you to essential tools used by managers—giving you insight into how teams perform, how financial decisions are made, and how organisations compete in global markets. These early modules help you build a solid foundation in the fundamentals of management.

As you progress, the course becomes more applied and strategic. Through modules like Entrepreneurship: Creating a Business Opportunity and Operations Management, you’ll explore how ideas become commercially viable, how products and services are delivered efficiently, and how organisations innovate in competitive environments. This part of the course encourages you to think creatively and strategically as a future manager.

Toward the end of your studies, you’ll take Management and Organisational Research, followed by your final Consultancy Project or Academic Dissertation. This final stage lets you explore a management issue that interests you — applying research skills, analytical thinking and practical insight to produce a piece of work that strengthens your career prospects.
