This part-time programme focuses on the topics that are essential to the effective management of people and organisations. The key issues in management, including business and company law and the marketing function, are all covered over the four years. Students also take subjects of general import to all parts of the wider public service, including law, economics, and financial management.
This degree appeals to those working across the public and private sectors who are either in a management position or would like to attain such.
