Overview

The MSc Management and Strategy blends critical analysis with practice, enabling you to apply the latest managerial and economic theories to real-world contexts. You’ll learn how to use economic analysis to develop innovative solutions to managerial challenges, such as pricing strategies, organisation design and resource allocation.

Unlike some traditional degrees, this programme equips you with a critical understanding of the wider socio-economic environment in which organisations operate.

By graduation, you’ll be a confident analytical thinker and effective decision-maker. Our graduates go on to rewarding careers in leading organisations, such as PwC, Deloitte, McKinsey, Goldman Sachs and HSBC.

Careers

The MSc Management and Strategy develops your intellectual and practical skills as a managerial economist.

Your professional management skills will be developed throughout the programme, including communication and presentation skills, teamwork, and cultural intelligence gained through close collaboration with an international cohort.
