Subjects

Core Modules
Leadership and Management Development (20 credits)

This module engages you in personal and professional development in order that you develop and hone your team working, management and leadership skills, capabilities and attributes, and in so doing, enhance your employability. On this module, you will not only prepare for your first job after you graduate but also kick-start your commitment to life-long personal and professional learning. In the first part of the module, you will be supported in self-analysis by a range of activities, including the completion of self-administered tool-kits to demonstrate an increased self-awareness and self-understanding.

A key outcome of this process is how you will be able to exploit this development in order to lead, and manage, more effectively in your future careers. The second part of the module contains activities which enable you to build on your self-analysis and explore further your strengths, weaknesses and areas for development in the context of your career development plans.

This will also include the development of knowledge into the global graduate market, (including routes such as self-employment and developing your career with an existing employer) drawing upon local, national and international examples.

Research Methods and Analytics for Business Practice (20 credits)

This module will provide you with essential knowledge and analytics skills needed for you to complete a high-quality Masters’ Dissertation, or Consultancy Project. By undertaking and reflecting on practical research-based activities you will understand the process of designing and carrying out a research study, also you will engage in activities that involve the understanding of data and analysis of data.

This will place you in a strong position to undertake your own Masters’ level research or Consultancy Project. At the end of the module, you will write a research proposal, this will be assessed and will contribute to your final mark. In the dissertation you will work under the supervision of a member of academic staff and your proposal will also help to ensure you get the most from this relationship.

Strategic Management for Competitive Advantage (40 credits)

This module is aimed at those with little or no prior business and management subject experience. The module introduces the main business functions – Finance, Marketing, HRM, Operations, Strategy – and shows how each contributes to a business’s competitive advantage, enabling firms to achieve strategic objectives.

Academic Language Skills for Post-Graduate Business Students (0 credits)

The aim of this module is to support your study, language and communication skills for academic purposes in the study in your chosen discipline at the postgraduate level.

The module is designed to enable you to become an advanced independent learner. The module is supported by a teaching and learning plan which outlines the formal sessions. Interactive workshops will be tailored to address some of the specific issues that you meet within your discipline.

You may also be asked to complete some preparation tasks for some seminars but these will be kept to a minimum.  You will be expected to identify those skills which you need within your postgraduate programme, and to develop these independently through a range of learning activities that might include extended reading, and reflection.

Global and Transnational Business (20 credits)

Globalisation is the worldwide trend of businesses expanding beyond their domestic borders. To compete in today’s global economy managers need to be able to apply management principles across countries and cultures with suitable adaptation in the process. Adopting a truly global perspective of management, this module presents current thinking in international business theory and practice.

You will be exposed to the environment of International Business and Multinational Corporations (MNC). It will cover topics such as international trade and investment theories, country environments (e.g. political, legal, financial and economic contexts), culture, foreign direct investment, international strategy, corporate governance and market studies.

Global Consumers and Marketplaces (20 credits)

Have you ever wondered how brands make their products and services available in four corners of the world? How companies co-ordinate their multi-million pound advertising campaigns across national TV networks and time zones? Even how consumers in different parts of the world think about products and brands in a world dominated by digital media?

Global Consumers and Marketplaces will explore such questions and provide you with a thorough appreciation of how the marketing function supports businesses in doing business internationally. You will explore global consumer trends, assess suitable market entry strategies and how international marketers make decisions on products, prices and promotion.

Through a practical piece of assessment, you will develop skills in identifying market opportunities in other countries, collating research to support your ideas and presenting a professional standard business plan to outline your ideas.

The Newcastle Business School Masters Dissertation (60 credits)

You will design a research project, assessed through a proposal and will then work under the supervision of a member of academic staff to use and extend the knowledge and skills that you have acquired during your programme of study to complete a dissertation. You will use appropriate research methodologies and data collection methods to critically synthesise a body of knowledge relevant to the taught programme.

On successful completion of this module, you will be able to conduct research and organise the findings into a comprehensive and explicit structure that is critically assessed and is linked to the conclusions drawn. You will demonstrate this ability by identifying an appropriate research topic, critically selecting and applying an appropriate research methodology and data collection method(s) to your chosen research topic, demonstrating a rigorous understanding of the theory and literature relevant to the issues under investigation, and showing how these link to the research method(s). You will also critically reflect on how their research contributes to the understanding of the topic area.
