MA Management
Key Programme Features
The MA in Management aims to extend
management skills preparing you for the
world of work at the highest level.
You will develop knowledge of
both the strategic and operational
aspects of business management.
This will not only help you secure
an edge in the job market but it
is also excellent preparation for
further academic study.
During your studies you will have
the opportunity to choose between
an Applied Company Research
(ACR) project or a dissertation.
Previous students have worked
on ACR projects to design
a dynamic evaluation tool to
measure the effectiveness of
PR campaigns and to improve
the effectiveness of service
provision for a community interest
company. This programme is
equally suitable for students
with or without a first degree
in a management subject.
“The programme has
provided me with an
insight into lots of areas of
management. I’ve made
great connections with local
businesses and worked on
some very enjoyable projects.
It has really opened my eyes
to the alternative side of
management such as power
relations and gender.”
Bethany Edge,
MA Management 2016/17
Following the successful
completion of her ACR project
Bethany has continued to study
in Keele Management School
