Welcome to the programme award of MSc in International Business.
The MSc International Business degree aims to provide students with an opportunity at an advanced level to develop expertise and skills relevant to the exercising of senior management functions within private, public and not for profit voluntary sectors. It is designed to provide a robust and rigorous analysis of management activity relevant to general management. Key to this programme will be the opportunities to study and work with established companies, combining class based learning with work based assessments. This design allows students to develop significant academic knowledge and practical skills in the area of general management, which will help graduates to achieve professional excellence in both academia and industry.
The MSc International Business degree at Lincoln offers graduates a multi-cultural environment in which to study. There is a core theme within the programme which is focused on strategy and its relationship to ethics and sustainability. The programme is based on cutting-edge research and management activity undertaken by faculty members, visiting faculty and industry managers, as well as best practice as identified in the current literature. A three-stage programme structure (Certificate/Diploma/Dissertation) allows students to progress through the programme in such a way that they maximise their individual and professional needs.
