  • About the Programme

    An education grant of S$4,360 is available to local applicants for the 2025 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. Management 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 in either Single or Double Majors.
