Study Details: MBA Full-time: 1 year
Become a business leader of the future with an excellent understanding of digital platforms, AI, new ways of working, the importance of embedding sustainable development and practice, enabling you to become responsible leaders and managers.
The world of business and commerce is developing at an exponential rate, with the development of new ‘game changing’ technologies and the need for businesses to develop in sustainable and responsible ways. The organisations that will prosper in this new environment will require their leaders and managers to be equipped with the skills, knowledge, traits, behaviours and self-efficacy to navigate, contribute and provide added value as organisations develop to meet new needs.
Applicants should normally hold a good honours degree (minimum upper second class) from a UK university (or overseas equivalent) in any subject or a professional qualification deemed to be of equivalent standing. Alternatively, applicants may have significant management experience and a substantial record of achievement. Applicants meeting these criteria may not have previously studied at university.
We welcome and encourage all applicants as long as they can be considered adequately prepared to succeed on the programme. If learners have few or no formal qualifications, they may be able to gain entry to the programme if they have the required communication and learning skills as well as the knowledge, experience and motivation to succeed.
We welcome applications from international students. If your first language is not English you will be expected to have IELTS 6.5 (with at least 5.5 in each skill area). You may be exempt from providing evidence of English language proficiency if you have gained your undergraduate degree from a UK university. Please see further information for international applicants, including a list of documents required.
All applications are considered on an individual basis. Applicants may be invited to an interview, either on campus or online, as part of the application process.
When submitting your application, please ensure it is complete, with all the relevant documents requested in the application form.
