  • MA Dissertation (60 Credits) - Compulsory
    This module gives students an opportunity to synthesise and reflect on knowledge and skills developed during the programme as a whole and apply them to the formulation, design and execution of an original, independent research project addressing a substantive management problem. In particular the module aims to extend the knowledge and skills developed during the programme with extra training on research methods and methodology suited to an advanced-level, original piece of scholarship or professional research; to facilitate students understanding of the design and conduct of applied research; to support students individual synthesis and application of their knowledge to a selected management topic, reflected in formulation and design of a substantive research investigation.
    Management Concepts: Theory Practice (30 Credits) - Compulsory
    This module builds students advanced understanding of management as well as developing their skills in putting that understanding into practice. It approaches organisations from a management perspective, investigating different approaches to management decision-making. In particular, it aims: to explore the complexity and integrated nature of managerial work; to identify and assess different methods of allocating resources as a way of achieving corporate objectives; to develop students ability to apply management tools and techniques in a variety of decision-making contexts; to investigate emerging issues and contemporary trends in management.
    Managing Projects (30 Credits) - Optional
    This module helps students from a variety of backgrounds and with different career ambitions to understand how project management techniques can be used across a range of sectors to enhance strategic corporate objectives. In particular, the module aims to offer a comprehensive account of project management, programme management and project portfolios, based on a combination of scholarly work and code professional practice; to develop students understanding of strategic project management and systems design processes; to outline and develop skills in professional techniques used in project closure and evaluation; to introduce and evaluate Critical Success Factors for projects.
    Managing Quality (30 Credits) - Optional
    This module aims to: strengthen students critical understanding, at an appropriate level, of essential business concepts and tools involved in the management of Quality in organisations, as well as priorities and techniques in their application; investigate current practice in the context of the historical development of this field; develop critical and analytical insights into current Quality issues and achieve a comprehensive understanding of the impact of Quality Management on business and society; form a reasoned understanding of how Quality Management links with cognate disciplines; interrogate professionally-relevant issues related to implementation of Quality concepts based on critical analysis.
    Quantitative Analysis for Managers (30 Credits) - Compulsory
    The principal goal of this module is to enable a future manager to work productively in a dual mode: firstly, as an analyst who is able a to isolate and categorise a quantitative problem, b formulate an appropriate decision model and then c use that model to generate output to aid decision making; and secondly, as a user who commissions a study or uses results arising from one. In order to achieve this overall goal, it aims in particular to: - develop quantitative and analytical skills; - provide a business perspective on decision making; - explore different concepts involved in quantitative analysis; - place an emphasis on the interpretation and validity of results obtained from different methods.
