Course Description
This course is an intensive programme that immerses students in a world of academic thought and current business practice in an international context; studied over 15 months, this is a taught programme delivered by our experienced internal and visiting faculty and complemented by regular guest speakers; it is ideal for those who are looking to change direction in their career, particularly on an international level, or to add significantly to their knowledge and business expertise; our MBA programmes are consistently ranked by The Economist and The Financial Times, and the School is accredited by the Association of MBAs (AMBA) and the European Quality Improvement System (EQUIS); the programme is designed upon the two, interlinked principles of collaboration and developing the individual; it is also underpinned by the recognition that people undertake the MBA to advance their careers in a new direction; throughout the programme students will participate in an extensive personal development programme focusing on individual and team skills, as well as key competencies such as persuasive communication and problem solving; in the first semester, students study ten courses in major disciplines followed by a one-week integrative project; this is the foundation upon which the whole MBA is built; in Semester 2, students take courses in Strategic Management as well as specialist option courses; from April to June, students will study abroad at one of ten partner institutions worldwide, immersing students in a new culture and way of business; this is followed by an internship which provides an unrivalled opportunity to gain experience in the context of their studies and future career plans; taking inspiration from the insights gained through the internship, the conclusion of the MBA is the MBA Capstone Project, which brings all of the year's learning together in a piece of work unique to each student.Additional Entry Requirements:
