MSc Strategic Planning

The Masters in Strategic Planning is targeted at individuals who either are, or intend to become, senior managers holding substantive positions in organisations.

Typically, at senior management level individuals are expected to contribute more than their functional specialty. In doing so they need to understand how an organisation can arrive at and deliver its strategic objectives. In the world of rapid change, organisations that can identify the need for change, design the changes needed and implement those more effectively and efficiently than others are more likely to survive and prosper.

While an MBA prepares individuals for the wide role of management, the area of top-level strategy formulation and execution requires an additional set of knowledge and skills.

Passes are required in five core and four elective courses.
