Synopsis
In this course, a selected number of qualitative management topics will be explored including strategic planning, organisational design, effective leadership, management control, HRM, sustainability, and social-cultural considerations. Importantly for engineering practice, aspects of contract law, engineering contracts, product liability and professional negligence, engineering ethics, workplace health and safety, risk management, intellectual property, entrepreneurship, and the engineering profession will also be explored. Many of these theories, strategies, and qualitative methods explored in this course are used, not only in engineering industries and project work, but also in the management of other operations.
