MSc in International Small Business Management
Back to Postgraduate programmes
This multidisciplinary scheme examines the management of small and medium sized enterprises and their links with entrepreneurship. It covers micro and macro issues concerned with the economics, sociology, psychology and management of small businesses, their creation, growth and maturity, the people involved in their creation and management, and the wider environment in which they operate.
The contents of the programme will address the nature of management imperatives as they apply to small and medium sized firms at different stages of their development. It will also enable the student to explore the difference between entrepreneurial and managerial behaviour, the economic and social role of small businesses, public policy, support systems, and the operational aspects of creating, planning, developing and managing a small business, all in an international context.
Students on this scheme will also benefit from both theoretical and practical forms of learning involving traditional inputs and the participation of business practitioners, policy makers and researchers.
This programme will enable students on graduation to create and manage small to medium enterprises at any stage of their development across an international environment and to appreciate the different pressures that exist in contrast to large corporations.
