Management science is a combination of quantitative and qualitative subjects. It is widely used for planning and decision making in business, industry, government, health services and everyday life by applying mathematical and statistical techniques to solving practical problems, often using computers. At Kent we also aim to develop your skills in communications and the human side of management. There is currently great demand for graduates with quantitative management skills.

Management Science at Kent is a wide-ranging and exciting subject that has staff expertise in operations management, operational research, statistics, mathematics, simulation and computing. The programme also combines theory with practical applications, so you can practise techniques you have learnt and develop your consultancy skills.

In a world of rapid change – increasing use of information and communications technology, larger organisations and changing politics – managers are faced with a growing number of complex situations, which in turn gives new and exciting challenges to management science.
Course Content
Although the course has an analytical and quantitative orientation, it does not demand a high level of prior mathematical expertise. The ability to cope with logical arguments presented in a formal way, and the willingness to explore numerical data are much more important. However, you should have a willingness to be exposed to some mathematics as this is required for some parts of the course. A-level Mathematics is certainly not an essential prerequisite but students who do not have A-level Mathematics or its equivalent are offered a support course on Analytical Methods for Economics and Business in their first year.

There are three mains strands to the teaching programme.

Quantitative Aspects of Management
This strand is designed to equip you with the basic quantitative skills you will need to unearth the information hidden in complex data sources (Statistics) and to use it to assist in decision making (Operational Research). It is the most technical part of the course but even here the emphasis is on problem formulation and analysis rather than on mathematical detail. Modules in this strand will include:
Management Science I (first year, compulsory)
Management Science II (second year, compulsory)
Management Science III (third year, compulsory)
Topics in Operational Research and Statistics (third year, option)
Economic and Financial Aspects of Management
This strand focuses on the financial environment facing firms and considers how this affects the ways firms should and do operate. It also covers the foundations in economic theory which underpin much of modern finance together with financial reporting and decision making. There are close links with the other strands: statistical methods are required to analyse financial data, the models discussed in operational research are often grounded in economics, there is a human as well as a financial dimension to accounting. Modules in this strand will include:
Markets, Hierarchies and Networks (first year, compulsory)
Financial Accounting (first year, compulsory)
Managerial Economics II (second year, compulsory)
Asset Pricing (second year, compulsory)
Quality Management (second year, option)
Portfolio Choice (second year, option)
Corporate Finance (third year, option)
Options and Futures (third year, option)
Econometrics (third year, option)
Mathematical Economics (third year, option)
Economic and Business Forecasting (third year, option)
Other Aspects of Management
This strand looks at a number of other sides of the management process. Because of the wide range of subjects covered, and because we want to allow you to mould your programme of study to your personal interests and career plans, most modules in this strand are optional. The list includes those which are likely to exploit the skills you will have acquired in the rest of the course.
Introduction to Management (first year, compulsory)
Industrial Organisation (third year, option)
Business Strategy (third year, option)
Human Resource Management (third year, option)
The Information Economy (third year, option)
The Globalised Economy (third year, option)
Law and Economics (third year, option)

Optional modules change from time to time to make sure they are as topical as possible so the lists above should be taken as indicative only.
