Aims

The programme will provide participants with the essential skills as well as the advanced knowledge and understanding of international business and strategic management.
The programme follows a problem-based learning approach, and participants will be expected to demonstrate how they have utilised their learning and development in solving business related issues and problems by integrating and building on perspectives from the course and the literature, and their own contexts through an End Point Assessment.
