Management is often described as "the art of getting things done through people".
The top jobs in manufacturing, business, health care, education, legal, non-profit, recreational and science organisations include managerial responsibilities.
Management skills are equally necessary for self-employment, small businesses, national businesses, government organisations and multinational corporations.
This major is available for the Bachelor of Commerce (BCom).

Did you know?
Even if you end up as a surgeon, or rock-tennis-opera-movie star, your career will surely involve working in organisations.
As an economist, accountant or marketer - or indeed in any job - your effectiveness will depend on how adept you are at understanding the organisation you work in, and getting things done through it.
You'll need good models of how people behave in organisations, of the sources of power and influence, of the nature of leadership.
