STI Myanmar Universtiy

The Foundation of Business Management degree program prepares the students with the required skills for managers with modern business administration skills, technology, marketing, accounting, communication and human resources with creative ideas. The business management helps students to become conceptual thinkers and will be well prepared to be qualified professionals to apply their administration and management skills in today global business environment. Students are also required to undertake a self-selected project. The students will have a Supervisor assigned to them post agreement of the topic.

Assessment forms an integral part of the learning process. The assessment aims to enhance the learning experience rather than simply provide academic benchmarks. It allows your progress to be monitored during the course and to be enhanced by feedback from tutors, and also provides an opportunity for you to integrate your prior learning when undertaking a more focused assignment or presentation task. The assessments for level 5 will be carried out using several methods with exams and in particular developmental portfolios playing a key role.

The assessment methods used relate closely to the learning outcomes of the course and individual unit, while allowing you scope for creativity in fulfilling them e.g. by self-selection of case study examples to present within a written report within a particular business context. Assessments will in many cases be vocationally ‘sensitive’ and be designed to promote awareness of contextual policies and to promote engagement with real-life local, large and small scale business projects.
