Master of Management Massey Business School

Take the next step

The Master of Management is a professional qualification, designed to increase your business knowledge to help you move up the hierarchy of your career, or make a career change.

Some specialisations can be now completed in one year on the Manawatu campus.

Management involves both being able to work independently and make management decisions, but also being able to work with and direct teams of people. Those people could be within your organisation, or external clients and stakeholders. The Master of Management study programme works with you to help develop these skills as well as specialist business capability in your endorsement of choice.

It is a relevant, contemporary qualification, with a unique core of courses that focus on the key business skills of communication, understanding current issues in business and on the fundamentals of the major you have chosen. This gives you a solid platform of knowledge to build on in your particular areas of interest.
