Course content

Taught by a team of practising artists, curators and writers, our Master of Fine Arts degree offers you the time and space to engage with exhibition and curatorial initiatives, contemporary art practise, theoretical texts and publication projects.

The Global Executive MBA uniquely delivers proven leadership teaching with international insight. It builds on our flagship Executive MBA which has been running for over 50 years.

The programme will empower you to become an exceptional leader who thinks and acts with clarity, confidence and conviction. Personal and professional development are woven into the fabric of our MBA degree.

You’ll gain a profound understanding of yourself as well as clarity on your future career direction and goals. Our experienced and inspiring tutors will support and challenge you every step of the way.

The Global Executive MBA is a part-time programme that runs for 24 months.

You will take part in two Global Immersion Study trips. First, you’ll carry out a consultancy-style, team-based project with an emerging international business or start-up, in locations such as the USA or other suitable locations. Next, you will travel to South Africa, where you will work on a team-based project for an NGO, to directly impact organisations grappling with critical social issues.

At Henley, we place great importance on building a community of peers that stretches beyond the length of the MBA. This flexible MBA is a truly international experience, with a global focus to its syllabus and research projects.
