Overview
Accelerate your career and take on the complexities of international business with this Global MBA programme, which includes an industry placement.
Explore a curriculum that merges global business strategy with insights into local market realities. You'll study subjects such as change management, innovation and creativity, and the global business landscape - and graduate prepared to lead in a dynamic international environment.
Throughout the course, you'll build a flexible and highly sought-after skill set that positions you for success in fast-growing sectors. You’ll also have the chance to tailor your degree with one of our specialist pathways:
A business-related undergraduate degree isn’t required to apply. And with timetabled teaching concentrated into set days each week, you’ll have the flexibility to balance your studies with part-time work or independent study.
After your first year, you’ll undertake a professional placement to gain practical, real-world experience in a business setting. This valuable combination of academic learning and industry engagement will equip you with the confidence, insight and applied skills needed to make a meaningful impact in global business. If you'd prefer not to do an additional placement year as part of your studies, you could apply for our 1 year Global MBA instead.
