BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION

OVERVIEW OF THE PROGRAMME

An MBA qualification continues to be the flagship qualification for post-graduate business students seeking to increase subject knowledge, build a portfolio of management skills and enhance future career prospects in a competitive and increasingly global arena.

The MBA suite consists of a number of routes (see above) all of which encompass three core topics, which provide the foundation for a successful business, namely strategy, finance, and leadership.

MBA - There is a mix of traditional ‘hard core’ academic business Master’s modules consisting of Strategy, Finance, Marketing, and HRM which continue to be the foundation for this type of program. The programme routes offer other modules, drawing on a wide range of bodies of knowledge, which reflect the context within which an organization is required to trade. The outcome is a rounded business outlook with insights into corporate governance, environmental concerns, marketing, and HRM perspectives within a framework of effective and critical reflective practice

The career direction of MBA students is both diverse and specialized, however, roles requiring effective planning and undertaking of projects are strongly evidenced, together with enhanced responsibilities and the management of a team or group where leadership skills and decision making are clearly required. Other roles may be more focused on a specialism such as human resources, marketing, and finance, and accounting.

Past students have become Operations Managers, Lean Managers, Project Managers in a range of fields, Human Resource Managers, and Marketing Managers. This list is not exhaustive.
