Course details

Summary

The programme gives students an advanced knowledge of theory, principles and applications in specific disciplines (such as management, organisational behaviour, marketing, finance, accounting, and economics). These management skills have the ability to impact on the lives of not just you the graduate, but also all those who are affected by your future decisions. Whether we are participating in a sports club, or working in a commercial organisation; whether we are employed by a government department, or a consumer of goods and services, the decisions of managers in commercial and not-for-profit organisations affect the quality of our lives, and the success or failure of society. The Master of Commerce and Management prepares students for the realities of the modern business world opening up an attractive range of career options.
