Why study Management?

Managing is not simply about making something efficient or more productive. At UTS, we see managing as part of an essential role in earning public trust in providing what's needed for the public good. And that's a completely different take on the conventional ways of thinking about management.

While you’ll learn practical skills what’s equally important is the theory underpinning those skills. One of the most important theories of practice to learn is valuing the role of work, understanding work from the shop floor to the back office, right through to the boardroom and not distinguishing one as being more important than the other.

Management is more than just, motivating people, it’s about creating a culture, a culture where people can thrive and with UTS it’s about equipping you with the relevant skills, attitudes and capabilities beyond just business for a vibrant career in many industries such as the not-for-profit sector, for the government, and agencies.

Management will grow your appreciation for not just the workplace, but the human condition. And the importance therefore, of what constitutes the role of management in shaping the future for us all.

Get inspired

Management is significant for all businesses as it brings together the various elements of a business to drive the organisation or department forward as an integrated unit.

It involves planning, delegating, monitoring, organising and budgeting for organisations to ensure they are responsive to a dynamic, competitive business environment.

The Management Discipline Group at UTS is one of the largest and most diverse groups of management academics in Australia.
