Development trends in Asia and in the world are redefining the leadership role of managers. In a world of increasingly complex organizations, it is imperative that tomorrow's managers are prepared. It is no longer sufficient to be a bachelor's degree holder, rather managers are expected to be experts in their disciplines and to possess superb leadership styles to meet the demands of global management. The MDM program of Norton University will facilitate acquisition of these competencies to help develop THE MANAGERS OF TOMORROW.
All the courses in the MDM program are integrative. They allow the students to reconstruct their knowledge and experiences as they explore the different areas essential to sound management. Their practical experiences working in the government or private organizations are put to test as they formulate hypotheses and search for more questions in their day to day managerial responsibilities. This academic interplay of ideas will develop their abilities to articulate their own vision as managers able to cope with uncertainties and lead in the management of change in their work place.
The courses detailed below list the planned curriculum for the MDM program. However, Norton University may change some of these courses in order to provide our students with the education required by Cambodian Government departments and Non Government Organizations.
In the light of the challenging environment in management comes the need for more disciplined and adaptive-context of management, introducing more effective and creative leadership style.
As Cambodia is currently experiencing economic, political, technological and environmental changes, it needs a systematic process of learning for planning and decision-making to address emerging national problems. It is undeniable that sustainable development for any country relies on strong manpower and education, particularly higher education, which enhances the intellectual capabilities of human resources. In this aspect the private sector in education could take an active role with a focus on the country's human resource potential for regional and international development.
Norton University therefore as the leading private institution of higher learning is opening avenues to facilitate the production of graduates with competencies in Development Management. Its management program is designed to immerse potential students into developing strategies and policies for organization, setting goals, allocating effective use of resources, making sound decisions and evaluating performance
Norton University is committed to meeting societal needs with a mission to produce high quality graduates in all its graduate programs.
