Today's businesses and organisations operate in a global context of disruption and uncertainty. Whether for-profit or not-for-profit, public or private, all are affected by political, ecological and demographic complexities. So what are the implications for those organisations and businesses? They must be quick to change. And they must change strategically.
Endorsed by Ernst & Young (EY), this program benefits from depth of expertise, knowledge and cutting-edge research. Students will learn the art of strategising and the practice of strategy. They will learn how to develop strategic business models and understand the implications of digital strategy. Students will also acquire a deep knowledge of mergers and acquisitions as a potential strategy to enter new markets, grow or access critical resources and capabilities.
Working with real examples from industry, students will test their theoretical knowledge in context. In the company project module students tackle a question, task or challenge sourced from companies and supported by faculty and partners from EY. The department's teaching is underpinned by the staff’s cutting-edge research, which they bring to the classroom.
For the dissertation, students can choose a desk-based topic, empirical research or a real strategy project. The latter sees students formulate or implement a strategy within a company and then write a reflective essay. Some students continue with the company as interns or directly in paid employment following graduation.
It doesn’t matter if a student has a background is in art or engineering, medicine or management, studying strategy combined with their existing in-depth specialist knowledge will enhance their worth in the job market. Graduates are able to change and challenge the idea of a business and where it is at. Many go on to work with consultancy firms, high tech businesses and financial organisations.
