Welcome to the Department of Management!

Our department brings together exceptional faculty, students, and community to fulfil the University’s mission to nurture and develop students' talents and to create applicable knowledge for social and economic advancement.

We are home to award-winning international faculty whose expertise sits at the forefront of international business, strategic management, organizational behavior, and human resource management. Faculty research addresses pressing challenges currently faced by organizations and leaders globally. This innovative research is published in top-tier academic journals, advancing theoretical knowledge and offering actionable, evidence-based guidance for firms.

This cutting-edge scholarship is brought directly to the classroom, where our faculty empower students to become resilient leaders of tomorrow. To effectively prepare students for dealing with volatility and rapid change, we champion a proactive learning philosophy, which equips students not only with technical acumen but also essential human-centered competencies. These include emotional management, effective communication, kindness and compassion, critical for future-proofing in an increasingly digital and interconnected world.

Beyond the classroom, we collaborate closely with local enterprises and the global community to make a positive impact on society. Faculty, students, and community partners co-create a dynamic and sustainable ecosystem where curiosity is celebrated, lifelong learning is embraced, and knowledge is mobilized to solve real-world issues.
