Our one-year MSc Management course will transform you from an ambitious graduate into a successful manager. Inspired by our highly ranked MBA programmes, the MSc Management is an intensive and immersive course, ideal if you have aspirations for senior leadership roles in management. You will learn to apply the skills you acquire in a range of environments including marketing, purchasing, strategic customer management, business consultancy and organisational development.
We believe that studying the theory is only one element that enables you to become a global leader. We focus on developing you as an individual, enhancing your soft-skills and the impact you can have early in your career, whilst furnishing you with a broad conceptual knowledge of management supporting you as your career progresses. This course is accredited by the Association of MBAs (AMBA).
Course details
You will refine and build upon your communication, teamworking, and presentation skills through individual and group work, and develop your personal and professional skills in decision-making, problem-solving, analysis, and critical reflection. You will have the opportunity to get a real sense of the business world with site visits, external speakers, and talks from our Professors of Practice, senior business and industry practitioners. You will also have a developed awareness of international business culture through optional international modules.
All students on the course will complete the Business Immersion and Critical Thinking module offering intensive learning opportunities partly taught at WBS London at The Shard.
You will study six compulsory modules to give you a broad overview of key business areas, and three open optional modules to suit your own aspirations. You will be able to choose an Elective Pathway, giving you a deep and specialist insight into a particular sector, organisation type or role. Elective Pathways may include Global, Digital Management and Small/Medium Enterprise and Innovators.
Optional modules
Our range of optional modules offers stimulating choices including some international modules. Please note that module availability may vary and that your first choice may not be guaranteed.
Assessment
You will have group and individual assessments, plus exams, and an individual dissertation.
Your dissertation
You will complete an individual dissertation. This will be a piece of desk-based research on a company of your choice, and will test your understanding of management theory as well as your ability to select and apply it.
