Learning and Assessment
The course incorporates a number of teaching and learning approaches and makes considerable use of blended (e-enabled) learning to support material covered in the formal sessions. This enables us to provide access to a range of study materials as well as ongoing feedback throughout the course. Formal assessment draws upon a variety of methods including group work, case studies, written essays and business reports, and presentations.

You will normally possess at least a lower second-class UK Honours degree or equivalent. Although we normally expect this to be in a relevant area: Business Studies, Economics, Accounting, Management Science or a related degree, applicants with degrees outside these areas will be considered. Applicants with substantial relevant professional experience will also be considered. Credit transfer is possible if there is evidence that the material covered in any module has been satisfactorily assessed to Masters level.
