  • Course description
    COURSE CONTENT
    Following the same structure as the full-time MBA, this programme also affords the opportunity to follow one of two specialist strands in public-sector management and logistics.

    It develops critical thinking skills grounded in students' existing familiarity with the operational and strategic concerns across an enterprise, with the aim of producing well-rounded and effective managers with the capability to fulfil their personal objectives. This rigorous and stretching programme balances thorough coverage of fundamental management principles with exposure to innovative and challenging ideas.

    The exploration of fundamental issues, such as the social impact of management choices and decisions, provides a holistic approach to business management. The programme also cultivates a critical awareness of management practices used when dealing with complexity in business environments.

    Students explore issues concerned with the nature of management and organisations in the contemporary business environment and gain a common grounding in the main functional areas of a business. Modules give an integrative and strategic dimension to the study of business and encourage students to synthesise and become critically aware of wider concerns than the functional specialisms.

    FURTHER INFORMATION
    Participants in Hull have the opportunity to take one module overseas at the distance-taught locations of Bahrain, Hong Kong, Oman and Singapore, and vice versa.

    ASSESSMENT
    The course is assessed by a range of methods, including coursework, examinations and group work. All students complete a dissertation in an area of personal interest.

    SPECIAL FEATURES
