Meet our programme chair and alumni to discover how this MSc develops the strategic thinking, analytical, and decision-making skills organisations demand.
The MSc in Management (Strategy) enhances the knowledge skills, and competencies of students who already have an undergraduate degree in business, but who wish to develop a deeper competency in business strategy and management at the Master’s level. The programme provides you with highly sought-after skills and competencies to assess and contribute to strategic thinking, analysis, decision-making, strategy formulation and strategy execution in organisations.
You will have the opportunity to gain real-world experience by putting these skills to the test in an end-of-year Applied Consultancy Project which involves being paired up with a client for a 6 month period to expose the student to an analysis of a real-world problem.
