Programme structureThe Full-time MBA is an intensive one year programme that immerses you in a world of academic thought and current business practice. Studied over 12 months, commencing in September, this is a taught programme delivered by our experienced faculty and complemented by regular guest speakers.
In Semester 1, you undertake nine foundation courses. These are the foundation upon which the whole MBA is built and ensures a common basis of knowledge across the different areas. This semester is concluded with an intensive, one week project that draws together all that you have learnt during this semester.
In Semester 2a and 2b, you tailor your studies towards your career interests, through the selection of your five option courses. Learning about strategy also becomes a central feature of the programme at this stage.
In Semester 2b, you also undertake a Consultancy Project, through which you engage with a company to resolve a business issue of particular relevance and currency.
Finally, your MBA dissertation brings all of the year’s learning together in a piece of work unique to each student, which should be viewed in light of your own future career plans.
