As a specialised management program, the MPSM curriculum is intellectually challenging. It is designed to provide students with not only a broad-based grasp of business, management and communication knowledge; but also offers unique insights, and abilities that allow our students the flexibility to achieve success in a wide range of public or semi-governmental sectors and industries in any country in the world.
Specifically, the main objectives of the MPSM programme are to:
- To equip graduates with the latest managerial skills tailored to meet the needs of the public sector.
- To develop a firm understanding of key concepts relating to public sector management reform
- To develop financial, budgeting and human resource management tools, in the context both of public and public-private service delivery mechanisms
- To develop the communications and personal development skills that transform managers into leaders
- To develop the capacity for innovation and creativity in problem-solving
The CIIM MPSM programme is aimed at
