The Department of Management is a vibrant, diverse department nurturing a dynamic culture of collaboration and capitalising on the unique and rich multidisciplinary landscape. The department aim to harness academic skills and knowledge to consistently deliver exceptional and transformative management education. Our focus is on creating educational programmes and context aligned with the vision that education is not just about personal gain but also about using knowledge for societal betterment. This collaborative approach fosters a dynamic, inclusive academic community, encouraging interdisciplinary cooperation for innovative curriculum design and solutions. Engaging in collaboration taps into collective intelligence, contributing to a shared sense of purpose.
The department has four distinctive subject areas shaping responsible management, entrepreneurship, innovation, leadership, and international business through research, teaching, and other academic contributions. Our strength lies not just in its multidisciplinary nature or external connections, but in the way it brings together people from all walks of life and empowers them to collaborate, learn, and grow. It's a community that celebrates diversity, cherishes mentorship, and thrives on the pursuit of excellence.
