The study of management focuses on how organizations develop, craft, and
implement winning strategies, structures, systems, and values in global
markets. Courses emphasize the organization's stakeholders and the
accompanying social, political, legal, economic, and technical dynamics
of worldwide markets. The department's goal is the development of
effective, socially responsible, and ethical leaders through innovative
teaching, research, and service. Courses cover such topics as
leadership, decision-making, ethics, innovation, organizational
learning, entrepreneurship, knowledge and human resource management,
governmental policy making, and global competitiveness. The
department's approach to teaching involves educational methods that
promote experimental learning, self-awareness, theoretical mastery, and
case studies and managing oneself. A major emphasis is on action
learning through group projects, business plan preparation, and the case
method.
