Disproportionate focus on theory?

B

I am doing a master in informatics. Just completed a course on CRM. The professor taught nothing other than theory from journals and some of it are just plain common sense. Is that a common way to teach at post graduate level in uk? I have done a few courses in us and also in India at masters level and the approach there are case studies, group discussions, role plays, small projects, presentations and lot of industry folks taking classes. Wondering if my univeristy is unique?
