Stay ahead of the game
This unique major has been designed to meet industry needs. It will upskill you in the latest information technology tools, issues faced by businesses today and the leadership skills to manage these effectively.
Managers in an IT environment need to have not only have fundamental technical capability, but also great management and communication skills.
The Master of Management (Organisational Technology Management) has been developed in conjunction with industry to give you those skills. Which means you’ll be sought-after by employers.
This is a relevant, contemporary qualification, with a unique core of courses. These focus on the key business skills of communication. You’ll gain an understanding of current issues and the fundamentals of organisational technology management. This gives you a solid platform of knowledge to build on in your particular areas of interest.
You’ll learn from our business experts. Massey University has the largest and one of the most highly respected management schools in New Zealand.
The Master of Management is a rigorous programme, where you will be expected to achieve at a high level. The quality of our graduates reflects this and contributes to the reputation of the qualification.
To progress to a PhD, choose Massey’s research-based Master of Business Studies.
If you would like to progress into a management role, or are interested in progressing into a higher level of management, the Master of Management can facilitate this progression. Students can look forward to a middle level or senior position in technology management.
International trends are for employers to reward postgraduate study well, especially in larger enterprises. The skills you learn are increasingly recognised as setting you apart from other potential employees.
