In the final two years students are able to choose from a wide range of Management honours courses, and write a dissertation on a topic of their choice. Management graduates are able to take advantage of opportunities across a wide spectrum of employment possibilities, from large multinational blue-chips to small and medium-sized enterprises in any number of private and public sector industries.
