MSc Management with Professional Practice

Welcome to MSc Management

MSc Management at the University of Lincoln is designed to prepare students for a career in business and management. The programme covers the fundamental subjects needed to manage a business successfully. Incorporating a range of innovative learning activities to develop leadership, decision-making, and problem-solving skills, the course has been developed to meet the needs of employers.

The programme aims to prepare students for careers in middle and senior management across various sectors of employment. Lincoln International Business School has a dedicated team of employability specialists to support students in career planning and development.

A focus on the international dimensions of business and management reflects the global environment in which organisations are increasingly operating. This global mindset is realised in our international academic community, which is home to staff and students from more than 100 countries. This brings together a range of experiences and perspectives which can enrich students' learning.

The MSc Management is a one-year, full-time, international programme open to applicants from all educational backgrounds, but designed primarily for students with no previous experience of business and management studies. The programme is also suitable for those who have proven managerial experience, which they may wish to consolidate with academic qualifications.

This programme can be studied full-time or part-time to meet the needs of students who are seeking to develop their career by combining academic study with their existing employment. Part-time students would usually be expected to complete the programme within two years. The programme is available for either an October or February start.

The course is offered with two separate pathways. Students can either complete one year of study or undertake a two-year course where one year is spent in Professional Practice to gain hands-on experience through a paid placement. Students will be responsible for sourcing their own paid placements but will be supported by dedicated employability specialists. Please note: students need to choose the Professional Practice pathway from the outset when applying for the course, and it is only available for an October start.

In addition to MSc Management, the University offers two other pathways: MSc Management with Human Resources - https://www.lincoln.ac.uk/home/course/mgthrmms/ and MSc Management with Project Management - https://www.lincoln.ac.uk/home/course/mgtapmms/.

The University also offers a number of online Master's degrees in Management, specifically designed for busy working professionals. No previous business or management experience is required, and the courses can be studied anytime, anywhere, and on any mobile or desktop device. Find out more at https://online.lincoln.ac.uk/
