Description

An MBA is the primary management qualification for aspiring business leaders and our part-time MBA is designed for those working in a wide variety of managerial, technical and professional roles. Our programme provides a rigorous and challenging postgraduate business and management education, where you will develop alongside other experienced managers and business professionals. It is a demanding but rewarding 3 year part-time programme which will help you develop into a more effective manager or professional working in a business management context.

The part-time MBA programme typically lasts three-five years and consists of a series of stages (and potential stepping-off points) corresponding to Postgraduate Certificate in Management Studies (Year one) and Postgraduate Diploma in Management Studies (Year two). The final part of the programme is the dissertation or project which completes the MBA.

Highlights

Integrating your own learning and development in a work-based situation is the underpinning principle behind the design of this MBA programme. At the end of each of the six core modules you will complete an individual and group-based assignment aimed at developing your knowledge and understanding of the materials covered and how these apply in an organisational context. The assessment process will also involve a case-study/presentation project enabling you to apply a range of theories and knowledge to a real problem in your organisation, in order to make a difference to your own management style and organisational performance.

The MBA will provide a reflective learning experience that will enable you to enhance your career potential, personal and professional effectiveness and performance in employment.
