课程特征 Course Features：
As a professional you have already proven your business abilities, but now you want to step up to the next level.
Most MBAs will increase your knowledge of business, but if you’re going to lead with confidence, seize global opportunities and succeed in a hyperconnected world, then knowledge is not enough.
The Surrey MBA offers a solid grounding in the theory and practice of modern business. As a professional, you already have a range of knowledge and skills. In the modern world however, knowledge is not enough; the ability to apply theory to practice defines managerial success.
The Surrey MBA provides you with knowledge and expertise across a range of management disciplines and also helps you to develop the key skills required to lead and manage successfully. The programme comprises a set of core subjects followed by a choice of optional modules, a consultancy project in a local company, skills development and career workshops, and an individual dissertation.
The foundation stage is designed to provide a strong grounding in the basics of business management and leadership. You are introduced to the core elements of business management and gain an understanding of modern organisations in the global world. Through a subject-specific set of core business modules we explore the key narratives of the modern business world, for example, flexibility, dynamism, risk, technology, sustainability and social responsibility.
At the specialisation/application stage your knowledge and understanding is advanced in four distinct ways: by developing and applying the core themes through a series of elective modules; undertaking a team-based consultancy project in a local organisation; through a series of workshops designed to equip you with key personal and professional skills; and undertaking a dissertation in an area of your choosing. The dissertation is the culmination of the MBA, providing the opportunity to apply the theories you have learned about in the earlier stages of the programme. You will be supported by a member of the MBA faculty who will act as your supervisor throughout the duration of the project.
课程内容 Course Content ：
The Surrey MBA cultivates ethical, creative, entrepreneurial business leaders and managers. Equipping you with advanced knowledge across the business disciplines, the Surrey MBA provides a robust basis for effective leadership. The Surrey MBA programme is a blend of professional development and academic modules. With a strong foundation in the ‘Management Practice’ induction programme, you can tailor your modules to meet your needs.
Compulsory Modules
The core modules address the fundamental aspects of business management, and give you the firmest possible grounding for success.
Managing Human Resources
You must be able to critically evaluate management approaches and explore how these can be applied to best effect, so this module will provide - and build on - a basic understanding of drivers and constraints of human action within organisations. Marketing Management
Integrating theoretical concepts and models with practical application means you can measure the contribution marketing makes to business success. We will help you to develop your knowledge and understanding of the principles and practice of marketing management within an organisational setting.
Strategic Operations Management
While the Surrey MBA will help you to master the day-to-day skills and issues involved in running a business, every organisation needs to keep an eye on the bigger picture.
Building on theoretical understanding and practical exploration of operations strategy, this module demonstrates how strategic operations management enhances corporate planning.
Financial Management
Understanding and analysing published financial accounts is a key managerial skill. Honing this ability will improve your critical evaluation of actual business performance in any given situation.
Strategic Management in a Global Context
Understanding the competitive market forces at play in the economy is only part of strategic management in a global context. You need to master, through theory and practice, the knack of formulating corporate strategy to embrace global environmental challenges, conditions and capabilities.
Elective Modules
Elective modules allow you to focus your Surrey MBA on your own ambitions and strengths.*
Modules available include:
Project Management
The module aims to extend your prior learning by linking theory with practice. With a focus on collaborative projects, it helps you develop the ability to plan and manage a small to medium sized multi-partner project to its successful conclusion. On completion of the module, you will have the knowledge and skills of project management for practical strategic and operational problem-solving.
Entrepreneurship
Entrepreneurs are one of the engines of a successful society. This module will build your ability to evaluate the various theories of entrepreneurship by analysing its economic and social role, and through examination of the factors affecting the development of entrepreneurship in society.
Financial Strategy
The module aims to provide a theoretical and practical understanding of financial strategy. It develops in-depth understanding of corporate finance theories and practical awareness of how these are applied in the real world.
Relationship Marketing
Knowledge and understanding of the key concepts in relationship marketing is a vital tool for managers in organisations big or small. The relationship cycle is the foundation of the process of customer relationship management, from customer analysis, targeting and acquisition through retention and development to developing customer loyalty, lifetime value and profitability.
Strategic Change Management
Ambitious managers and businesspeople need to appreciate the detailed complexity of managing change from a variety of perspectives.
Corporate Social Responsibility
Few organisations now neglect their public profile as responsible organisations, but to what extent is CSR merely PR or real strategic change?
Enterprise Information Management
The aim of the module is to give practicing and future managers a full understanding of the development, position and role of EIM in organisations. It explores the use of Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) to achieve excellent EIM.
Product and Service Innovation
Growth dominates discussions in boardrooms around the world. When asked, the majority of Chief Executives cite “growth through new products and services” as their number one strategic objective.
*Please note that this list is indicative. Elective modules will depend upon students' choices and therefore not all modules will run every year.
