BA in Management

Course Overview

3 Years

180 ECTS

From €3,500/yr

March, May and October

The course will use a mixture of formal and informal methods of teaching and learning. Considerable input from students is planned through interactive lectures, case study analysis, group discussions and presentations. Theoretical concepts will be delivered in a lecture format followed by smaller group seminars based on real-life case studies drawn from different business areas. Such discussions and interactive sessions will encourage students to examine their own assumptions critically, self-learning and thought processes. Students will be guided to key texts, references and on-line sources of information. The focus is on student-centered learning throughout the course.

Global College Malta recognises the need to support this shift to student-centered learning via their learning and teaching strategies. There are four key strategies followed to support the shift to directed self-study learning: enhancing student learning, reshaping the learning environment, implementation of academic enhancement courses and developing staff towards this direction.
