Course content

This MBA has been designed for those ready to make the leap into management roles from an existing job and those who are aspiring to become managers. The programme will give you a broader understanding of business by considering issues such as human and financial resources, customers and the business environment. Importantly, we take a strategic perspective on business and management and help you to develop the skills to contribute to major decisions made by organisations about their future. Applicants are welcomed from any discipline and from a wide range of job roles. Many entrants to an MBA have a science or technology qualification so it is not necessary that you have studied business or management before.
