MSIN6001 A or B - Management Principles
MSIN6001A = term 1 and MSIN6001B = term 2
Aims
To introduce the students to the reality of management principles and
practice
To introduce the students to the body of knowledge and expertise
that is becoming apparent in the increasing professionalisation of
management
To bring to the students an awareness of what managers do and
why their activities are critical to the success or otherwise of any venture,
project, business, not-for-profit or public service organisation
Objectives
The emphasis is on the content and coverage of the realm of
activities that is included in the word 'management'. This includes the
consideration the processes of management, skills and qualities, and the range
of activities and distinctive expertise that managers are increasingly required
to have.
The range of topics is deliberately broad. The intention is to
give the students a substantial yet wide-ranging introduction to the whole
field. This then acts as a general basis and foundation on which more focussed
and concentrated studies can be developed.
Topics are therefore not
treated in depth, but rather introduced in terms of their relationships with
each other, in preparation for later development. Throughout, the presentation
of the course is informed by the key management priority of coping with change
and uncertainty.
Issues of equality and discrimination are addressed
through using appropriate choice of language and range of examples.
