Friendly with high quality teaching
Gives an excellent overall approach to management – relates practice and the theory well
This course helped me understand the basics of operational management. It is well presented, stimulating and informative. The balance of lecture and group work is ideal. Group work helps the free exchange of ideas especially as the course progresses. Enrolment was efficient, access to lecturers and support staff was easy and friendly
