How to apply

To be considered for the Executive MBA, candidates are required to have:

• Either a good undergraduate degree or substantial and relevant work experience and/or professional qualifications as an alternative to a first degree.
• A minimum of four years' full-time relevant work experience after graduation is preferred.
• If English is not your first language you will require a minimum, well- balanced IELTS score of 7.0. This may be waived if you have worked or studied in an English-speaking country for at least a year.

Admissions decisions are based on the academic ability of the candidate, the level of experience and commitment that he or she brings to the course, and the contribution that he or she will be able to make to the learning of others. Most applicants will not be required to take GMAT. If we need further information on your academic capacity for the programme, or your current motivation to study, we may request that you take GMAT.

We operate a rolling admissions programme and we will continue to take applications as long as we still have places available.

Due to an exceptionally high demand for places from strong candidates on the Modular Executive MBA programme in Dubai, we strongly recommend that you contact our MBA team for a brief assessment of your skills and work experience before submitting a formal application.

Please e-mail your short CV to Ehsan Razavizadeh and we will provide you with feedback.
