About the MBA

This is for the big hitters, the problem solvers, and the global leaders; a Master's in Business Administration (MBA) could be the next big step in your career.

Develop the strategic, financial, and leadership skills you need to perform at the highest levels of an organisation. Succeed as a manager, entrepreneur, business owner, academic, or consultant.

Designed for busy working professionals, our MBAs offer:

  • core and optional modules
  • multiple start dates
  • a weekend study option
  • the option to study at our Dubai campus or from anywhere in the world through distance learning
  • an invitation to our annual MBA Summit

The course content is designed with input from industry advisors, including senior figures from the NHS Foundation Trust, Prince Lionheart, Bank of America, WWF, and Santander.

Core modules provide a solid base of management knowledge. Optional modules allow you to tailor aspects of the Executive MBA in Dubai and Distance Learning MBA to suit your career aspirations. The management project involves an in-depth study into a business area of your choice.

You can also specialise in a new, rapidly growing career area with our unique Innovation, Enterprise and Circular Economy MBA. This new economic model aims to use resources more effectively, reuse products and materials, and deliver increased profit.

The flexibility of the course allowed me to balance study with work and family life. I've got a big family, demanding job commitments, and I also like to travel, but I found that I didn't need to compromise any of that.
