Applied Management Project:
This module involves an investigation of a substantial management issue or problem, which demonstrates a critical awareness of managerial tools and the theories they depend on, and research techniques and approaches. It offers participants the opportunity to apply course concepts, theories and techniques and develop and interpret knowledge about the management of their place of work. Alternatively, the project may explore through primary research an aspect of the management literature and its implications for practice.
