For Dr Craig Johnson, MBA Programme Director, the full-time MBA ranking was particularly pleasing. “Of the many reasons to study an MBA, seeking to accelerate your career is one of the most important and is best reflected by how your salary changes. To be in the Top 10 in Europe is a wonderful achievement“.

The range of Bradford Masters and MBA programmes is designed to develop the strategic leadership qualities of participants who choose the programme that best meets their particular needs and learning preferences.
