Programme overview
About the Full-time MBA
The MBA programme is a transformational experience with a focus on practical application through integrated learning and live case studies.
The first part of the programme is designed to build on your understanding and knowledge of core business subjects with practical projects such as the integration weeks to put theory into practice.
During the last 6 months, you can tailor your learning specifically to your own needs. You will choose a number of electives from our specialist portfolio whilst also undertaking a business mastery project, a major piece of self-managed consultancy work.
Alongside this, we place a strong emphasis on developing a range of soft skills preparing you for future challenges in a competitive global business environment.
