MN-3023 Lean Operations

This module provides a practically focused course on lean (Japanese) approaches to operations management.
MN-8002 Introduction to Applied Doctoral Research

This module is designed to introduce DBA research students to the expectations of the Doctor of Business Administration and doctoral research more broadly. It is based on developing the initial research proposal through which the student applied for the programme. Students embarking upon a DBA face the challenge of applying established and cutting-edge theory to a practical organisational context. At the same time, they will be expected to manage their doctoral progress, supported by the structure of the programme and their supervisory team. This module is intended to equip students for these challenges. The main content will be taught through a blend of didactic and discussion-based delivery, focusing in part on exemplars and featuring guest sessions with experienced academics. Students will be guided through an outline of the main components of the thesis. This will include introductory work on scoping out the practical and theoretical contexts of the research, as well as an introduction to the range of research methods that might be used. Students will have prepared a presentation on their research which will be delivered to the teaching team for the module. They will then be supported and guided in refining their research. Support will also be given on matters such as doctoral authoring skills and a practical session on using the online library facilities. The assessment paper for this module will include a clear statement of the intended research question, the practical context for the research, a summary of the relevant literature, and an outline of the proposed methodology, including proposals for how data will be accessed. A full briefing on the assessment requirements will be provided by the module coordinator. The assessment for this module will also form the basis for the Confirmation of Candidature requirements of the PGR regulations.
MN-8006 Developing Your Impact on Theory and Practice

The fundamental importance of contributing to theoretical knowledge and the impact on practice or policy will be explored through this module. The content for the in-person three-day teaching block will include guidance on, and exemplars of what constitutes a contribution to knowledge, in terms of theory, practice and (less commonly) method. Students will undertake workshops on structuring their proposed contribution into a thesis, and the importance of conceptual framing will be re-visited to provide a theoretical context for the findings. The assessment paper for this module will represent a synthesis between the findings of the data analysis and the contextual work conducted earlier in the project through the setting out of the practical basis and theoretical framing of the research. It will be crucial for students to show that they can form a logical argument to support a proposed contribution. The assessment will contain two principle components. Firstly, there should be a proposed or anticipated contribution to theoretical knowledge based on the work undertaken so far. Secondly there should be a clear statement of potential impact on the practice of the student and to the organisational context underpinning the research.
MN-MAH7P Complex Health and Care: Systems

Health and care provision is one of the most complex management and organizational settings. This complexity can be very daunting when multiple organizations are involved in delivering care services (even for comparatively simple patient pathways). Making effective changes to such systems, in the absence of understanding the principles and schools of thought that concern complexity management, means changes are fraught with many dangers and can generate dysfunctional behavior that results in even poorer performance. This course aims to equip students with the knowledge of systems complexity thinking to analyze and enact more effective and sustainable changes to health and care processes. This module provides the student with insight and the deep understanding needed to understand health and care systems and their performance. Such insight will include a traditional systems approach to the modern complex adaptive systems frameworks.
MN-MAH9P Complex Health and Care: Improvement

Enacting change in a complex environment requires a new set of skills which are typically not taught to clinicians or managers and this course was designed to allow students to take a broad and holistic approach to visualizing complex care systems and using good theory to establish why a system is not performing well. The course focuses on understanding healthcare complexity, the models that allow analysis of such systems and the application of the most effective interventions to restore system stability. The course will explore the contradictions and dysfunctions of current systems designs and the problems of not using a complexity approach to design new or modify existing ways of working. The course is ideally suited to any student that aspires to work as a consultant to design new care processes or improve existing ones. This course is unique and is based on Swansea School of Management research including contemporary case materials and our network of professional experts.
MN-MB05P Creating Sustainable Value

The module combines case-based teaching with an introduction to the key MBA fields of technology management, operations management and marketing. The module takes an integrated approach to managing key aspects of technology, operations and marketing activities within an organisation. Rather than proceeding along conventional MBA disciplinary lines, as this method can often obscure the fundamental connections between them, the module takes a holistic approach to the way value is perceived and realized. This is a case-based module, organised around the evaluation of management and business practices for enabling sustainable competitive advantage. Recognising that sustainable development in all its forms is a dilemma beyond the capacity of any single organization, business or state to meet, this module draws on the UN Sustainable Development Goals to guide a flexible and topical curriculum that can keep pace with international news. We will give students an experience where the various perspectives that derive from their own professional experience, cultural and national diversity and traditional MBA fields are brought to bear on cases of the challenges of economic and social sustainability.

This course aims to equip learners with the knowledge of systems complexity thinking to analyze and enact more effective and sustainable changes to health and care processes.

It provides a comprehensive understanding of the underpinning approaches and methodologies in realising innovation for health and care based upon these approaches. Through a case-based pedagogy, it will focus upon practical experiences to analyse how these philosophies align with the challenges and opportunities of practice. It will also consider and critically appraise against wider approaches and methodologies used to inform improved health quality, outcomes and impact. The course will introduce and draw upon theory and principles of health, care and business management models. The scope for innovation will be explored through business and management modules in content of social models and determinants of health and care. This will include an understanding of and exploring cases through the prism of the traditional systems and processes, identifying opportunities to challenge and change. The course will develop the necessary skills to ensure learners are confident to evaluate the theoretical basis of these concepts and their application in practice. Learners will develop greater confidence and competence in measuring impact and outcomes of non-traditional and innovative approaches to transforming health and care. Learners will be required to challenge and critique existing methods of assessing value and impact.
