Introduction

An education grant of S$2,180 is available to local applicants for the 2024 intakes of this programme. Please contact our Programme Consultant for more information.
Management used to be about organising, directing and controlling, but times have changed. It refers to the process of employing resources to achieve organisational goals and customer needs. Today’s managers are facing new challenges, often with teams working across a range of locations, and must adapt to a constantly shifting set of macro conditions.
You will learn how to identify opportunities, assess challenges and find the best solutions to real-world management issues. You will work with organisations on projects to develop the skills and knowledge you need to become a successful manager.
You can use your Management Degree to explore exciting career paths, such as making a real difference to not-for-profit and charity organisations across the world. The study of management explores a wide range of relevant issues, theories and perspectives to prepare you for challenges at managerial level.
Students have the option to enrol for either Single or Double Majors.
