MSc Management Pathways
Within the overall programme structure, the MSc in Management offers a number of different routes – or pathways – through the programme, allowing you scope to explore certain subjects in more depth and develop a degree of specialisation.
Four pathways are offered:
- Management
- Strategic Management new for 2013
- Marketing
- Project Management
You do not have to decide at the start of the programme which one of these pathways you will follow – you make your choice partway through the first term, once you have formed an idea of which subject areas interest you most and which may be most valuable for your career plans.*
Pathway modules
The modules you take for each of the pathways in Terms 2 and 3, alongside your core modules, are shown below. You take a total of three pathway modules: one in Term 2 and two in Term 3.
