Overview

The Master of Management enables students to develop an enterprise-wide view of organisations embedded in a global society, integrating views from back-office/shop-floor to boardroom to town-hall meetings. Such a view is deemed essential to prizing the work, people, places and processes needed in a publicly scrutinized global business environment. Students gain the knowledge, skills and conceptual frameworks to enable them to identify, question, and through deliberative processes, respond effectively to these complex and demanding issues. Public expectations of post-graduate managers are high when it comes to being prepared to make, defend and be morally accountable for their judgements impacting on people, communities and ecosystems.

This postgraduate course provides students with knowledge and experiences to enhance their professional and public responsibilities in leading and managing, and the stewardship of resources and enterprises. An innovative, flexible structure provides students with maximum choice in selecting subjects and programs of study tailored to meet their personal and professional needs.

The additional elective subject choices provide an opportunity to specialise more deeply in the management discipline and to enhance students' skills further, including with respect to professional practice, specialist knowledge and capabilities.
