Master in Management

WHY TAKE THE MASTER IN MANAGEMENT PROGRAM?

The Master in Management program is designed to hone professionals in managerial and supervisory positions by providing them with key management science tools, strategic management concepts, and organization-relevant approaches.

The program initially provides our students with several analytical and quantitative courses taught through case studies, team projects, and lectures before giving them the opportunity to apply this knowledge to real-world cases in Mindanao. To graduate, students are required to draw on the sum of their theoretical knowledge and practical experience to develop a strategic plan for their chosen organization.
