Graduate Certificate in Management
Note
This course is not offered to international students.
The Graduate Certificate in Management introduces students to post-graduate studies toward an enterprise-wide view of organisations embedded in a global society, integrating views that range from back-office/shop-floor to boardroom to town-hall meetings. Such a view is deemed essential to prizing the work, people, places and processes needed in today’s highly competitive and publicly scrutinized global business environment for an increasingly uncertain future.
An innovative structure provides students with an introduction to the skills, attitudes and professional capabilities involved in managing and leading across industry sectors.
