International Strategic Management
In this era of globalisation it is essential for companies to understand
the different international environments of the markets in which they
may operate, and how these influence value-adding activities and
decision-making. This module will develop your understanding of these
different international environments in terms of the opportunities and
threats that they present and show you how they can underpin a sustained
competitive advantage in the international arena.
Financial and Management Accounting
This module gives you a theoretical and practical introduction to financial accounting and management accounting. Upon completion, you will have an understanding of basic financial and management accounting methods, financial statements and the major problems associated with interpreting accounting information using International Accounting Standards.
Customer and Supplier Engagement
Customers and suppliers are key stakeholders of most organisations and the marketing and supply chain management functions are the external interfaces for firms to engage with these respective stakeholders. This module will not only develop your understanding of marketing and supply chain management but will also enable you to develop a critical awareness of the collaborative and integrative synergies between these functions, which are often portrayed as being at opposite ends of an organisation’s value chain, in the international business environment.
Human Resource Management and Development in a Global Context
This module is designed to prepare students to undertake the role of a HR manager in an international context. To enable you to do this, you will examine the changing nature of organisations in a global context, and the debates around whether HR policy and practice is becoming truly global or whether national and cultural sensibilities prevent this. You will also be equipped with the skills needed to apply theoretical concepts relating to organisation design and development in practice.
