Course overview

Every organisation, from a local charity to a global brand, needs people who can plan, lead and solve problems, and that is exactly what this subject trains you to do. You will learn through case studies, group projects and assignments based on real organisations, building confidence in analysis, presentation and decision-making.

The extended format gives you more time than a standard MSc, including additional preparation and professional development, before your dissertation.
