Master of Management

About

The Master of Management creates business leaders who are ready to take on challenging roles within contemporary organisations across a range of industry sectors.

Managers increasingly require a broad set of advanced theoretical knowledge and applied techniques in order to be able to lead organisations through periods of complexity, uncertainty and change. 

The ICMS Master of Management is a postgraduate degree designed to sharpen your industry knowledge and prepare you for a leadership role. It is a modern business degree that will develop your strategic thinking and conceptual, analytical and practical skills. The course aims to provide highly developed business knowledge and skills that are the basis of responsible leadership, ethical decision-making and the effective management of organisations operating in the private, not-for-profit and public sectors.

The Master of Management will not only prepare you for leadership, it will teach you how to work effectively, apply contemporary management practices and demonstrate key management skills and attributes.
