Summary

A distinctive qualification which is intellectually-challenging, insightful and grounded in improving practice in the workplace.

The Master of Business Administration (MBA) is a part-time, 30-month programme that will help you respond to complex organisational issues at a senior management level. The programme supports you in examining strategic responses to organisational issues to create value and pragmatic solutions within your organisation. It develops you to become a confident, competent, forward-thinking senior leader who can identify and critically analyse data, prospects, and balance strategic thinking with excellent operational focus.

The central underpinning themes of the programme are transformation; both individual and organisational. It is intellectually challenging, insightful, and focused on improving practice in the workplace across all areas of management, leadership, and functions of a business. In consultation with employees, the curriculum has been developed to cover a broad range of business disciplines, including strategy, leadership, systems, innovation and finance, that prepares and enables you to take a strategic perspective in senior leadership.
