Politics is exciting and relevant. It’s about contests for power and how we make decisions in society: who gets what, when and how, from the local community to the global level. It’s concerned with the conflict of ideas and values. It has to do with who governs, with how and why decisions that affect all of us (such as how much students should pay to study at university or whether the UN should sanction military interventions) are made.

The Master of Management is a professional, relevant and contemporary qualification.

It has a unique core of courses that focus on key business skills like communication, leading and working in teams, and current issues in business.

Financial economics concentrates on decision-making under uncertainty. These decisions are applied to a variety of capital markets and asset-pricing.

You will build upon your undergraduate studies to gain an international perspective on management.
