Management is a set of activities focused on relationships between people and organisations. It involves facilitating and organising activities, formulating strategy and building structures to achieve performance goals. It is multi-disciplinary in theory and practice.

The Management major examines the processes, conceptual expertise and work functions involved in managing people and organisations effectively. Rather than focusing purely on the tasks, roles or functions of managers, the program examines the complex relations between power, people and resources that are the key challenges to effective management. Theories and predictions concerning new organisational forms, future business trends, and more effective management practices are studied in addition to established knowledge in the discipline. The overall objective is to equip future managers to effectively apply knowledge and skill to the complex problems facing organisations in today's dynamic global business environment.

The study of Management at UNSW is through the School of Organisation and Management www.orgmanagement.unsw.edu.au. At an undergraduate level, students can choose to major in Management within the Bachelor of Commerce and related combined degree programs. Postgraduate programs of study are also available.
