MSc Our Leadership Practice MSc programme provides a flexible, bespoke work-based route to a postgraduate qualification. As their focus, these courses have one or more work-based projects, which are supported by your own personal learning and development. You will benefit from a highly relevant, customised course, facilitated mainly online, which also delivers outcomes for your organisation. The key course components allow for high levels of customisation, choice and negotiation.
