The overall aim of the programmes is to provide an inspiring, challenging course of study that will equip you with the knowledge and skills necessary to enable you to contribute effectively to the leadership and management of organisations within a rapidly changing business environment.

Developing professional skills is key to graduate employability and teamwork, communication, planning, problem solving, time management, leadership, negotiation, compromise and conflict resolution are key transferable skills.  You will be given opportunities to listen to, value and challenge your peers; you will also be able to explain your own ideas.  You will have opportunities to develop your group work skills at all levels.
