Management is a broad field encompassing aspects of organisations and organising, strategy, sustainability, leadership and more. The research and teaching undertaken in the Management section are both extensive and vibrant. We are built upon diverse and complementary competencies and aim to develop responsible leaders and citizens for a local and global society.
The Management section provide a variety of management courses, both at the undergraduate and the master levels. Drawing on our multidisciplinary research, our courses are designed to equip our students with the knowledge and competencies they need to deal with the current and future needs of organizations and society. Our courses include, but are not limited to Organization, Leading and Organizing in an International Context, Perspectives on Strategy, Project management, and Organizational change. Our Master’s program is specifically designed for students interested in the strategic and leadership challenges managers face in the contemporary business world. Supported by frontline research, the program offers a sound theoretical grounding of essential management theories and concepts and various opportunities to put these theoretical understandings into practice - these occur within an international environment and are underpinned by a sustainability orientation.
Our faculty engage in a wide range of methodologies, from ethnographic fieldwork and interviews to surveys and databases to fiction. Researchers in the Management section are active within three research environments of the Department of Business Administration.
The section collaborates on several courses and research projects with external parties at regional, national, and international levels. The section welcomes collaborations in both research and teaching.
