The programme aims to focus on several transferable skills that are essential for managers in virtually all industries:
Problem-solving skills are curated through various interactive assignments and simulations. Students are expected to take active part in the seminars, all ensuing discussion and also complement their learning experience with guided learning, reading, and case study analysis.
Oral, written communication and presentation skills will be practiced in the interactive seminars, where students will be expected to regularly participate in open discussion and debates, formulate opinions and present them individually and in groups, deliver presentations and briefings to culturally diverse audiences, and write theoretical essays or business reports in a professional manner.
Analytical and data management skills will be strengthened by engaging online preparation material and a solid practice-based approach in computer lab sessions.
Students will regularly engage in projects that require teamwork and a collaborative approach: ranging from group assignments, group presentations, role play and drama pedagogy elements. Students will be expected to take part in the guided activities in-class.
