MSc in Management
The one-year full-time Masters in Management provides a broad introduction to the full range of business and management disciplines.
With its focus on developing understanding of how business functions and of the complex organisational issues which managers encounter, the programme provides the ideal preparation for a wide range of business and management careers.
Flexible design
The programme's core modules enable you to acquire a thorough grasp of areas such as accounting and finance, marketing, strategy, economics, human resource management and operations.
In our new programme design these are complemented in by Programme Pathways where you choose one of four routes – Marketing, Entrepreneurship, Management or Project Management – to gain more specialised expertise in these areas.
Skills development
A rich mix of project work and practical activities within the programme allows you to develop wide-ranging practical skills – invaluable for competing effectively in an increasingly competitive graduate job market.

Students come from a wide range of first degree subjects, and from many different nations. This gives richness and breadth of perspectives to the class and provides countless opportunities for cross-cultural comparison.
Opportunities exist within the programme to undertake in-company projects and gain first-hand insights into organisational issues. To broaden your international experience even further, you can take part in a Study Abroad programme at one of Lancaster’s European partner institutions.
The MSc in Management has been approved and accredited by the Chartered Institute of Marketing to provide direct entry on to the CIM's Professional Diploma in Marketing. The programme is also accredited by the Association of MBAs (AMBA).
