Taught Modules

MN-2071 Decision Making and Analysis

The purpose of this module is to provide an awareness and understanding of systematic and other methods available to assist decision makers in making decisions in complex situations, often under uncertainty, together with an awareness of the difficulties and issues arising with such situations and processes.
MN-3579 Disaster and Crisis Management

Managing a disaster and crises event requires a set of skills, attitudes and key knowledge at the macro, micro and inter-organisational levels to manage an emergency event in situations of deep uncertainty. This module prepares students to better understand the many risks, key aspects of resilience, inherent complexities, psychological issues and competing priorities that face decision makers involved in business, institutional and societal crisis events as they formulate a path back to normal operations.
MN-M534 Business Analytics

Business analytics as applied to big data is a game-changing opportunity for business practice. The last decade has seen an explosion in the volume of data collected by business and government ¿ providing opportunities to analyse behaviours at individual and macro- levels. The purpose of this module is to inform students as to the major concepts of business analytics ¿ both in theory and in practice from a strategic perspective.
MN-M604 Artificial Intelligence - Case Study Analysis

Artificial intelligence (AI) has emerged from a future view of widespread automation and Machine Learning (ML) to an application of narrow intelligence that has the potential for transformative societal and industrial change, but also ethical considerations. This module on Artificial Intelligence (AI) focusses on the analysis of AI implementation through the lens of practitioners ¿real world¿ experiences and the analysis of industry-based case studies. This module will develop a core understanding of the ¿lived in¿ experiences of AI projects and will develop the necessary core skills required by many organisations looking to implement AI and ML related technologies. The module will help develop a detailed and systematic understanding of many of the key complexities, numerous challenges and ethical considerations within the Artificial Intelligence domain. The key skills learned will be in demand by many organisations at a global level.
MN-M605 Artificial Intelligence - Principles and Concepts

Artificial intelligence (AI) has emerged from a future view of widespread automation and Machine Learning (ML) to an application of narrow intelligence that has the potential for transformative societal and industrial change, but also ethical considerations. This module on Artificial Intelligence (AI) prepares business graduates contemplating careers within industry and government, where knowledge of AI and its transformative impact, is likely to be an emerging core skill within the workplace.
