In the realm of commerce, the concept of professionally educated Manager was once an alien notion. Business corporations that used to prefer hiring school leavers and training them in-house to be managers. Most managers of that era joined their employer as eager school leavers and learned the art of management by understudying their superiors. Those who were lucky to have talented managers as their mentors prospered and went on to become excellent managers and corporate leaders themselves. However, many such apprentices failed to gain the skills necessary to succeed, and were unable to cope with the relentless competition their firms had to endure.
With these developments, corporations had to rethink their talent acquisition strategy due to intensifying competition. They found that they do not have years to train young school leavers into competent managers.Thus created a need for professionally trained business managers and the concept of the Management Undergraduate Degrees was born.
