Executive MBA

The MBA is widely regarded as the leading qualification for professionals in management. Built to drive your success, it equips participants with an in-depth understanding of contemporary business practices and develops distinctive, forward-thinking leaders. This programme not only provides a solid overview of global business but also strengthens your skills and knowledge, offering a deeper grasp of the complexities of today’s business environment. Recognized internationally as the benchmark for management education, the MBA delivers a demanding yet rewarding postgraduate journey where participants learn alongside other seasoned managers and professionals, sharpening their effectiveness as leaders.

What sets this MBA apart is its applied focus, designed to help executives reignite their careers and take on challenges across both local and international contexts. Rather than ending with a traditional dissertation, participants complete an applied business project tailored to address a real-world need in their current company or to prepare for their next entrepreneurial venture. This ensures immediate relevance and practical impact.

The executive structure of the programme is specifically tailored to experienced professionals who value a hands-on approach to business leadership. The “Applied Leadership” module enables students to engage directly with established CEOs and senior executives, gaining insight into what it takes to run a thriving business. In addition, the business project gives participants the opportunity to apply their learning directly to a live enterprise, whether by strengthening an existing organization or launching a new initiative.

The MBA experience is enriched by its strong international dimension, drawing on a global student body and a faculty of highly qualified experts, ensuring participants gain perspectives and practices that extend far beyond borders.

Programme Structure

The MBA has been designed to meet the objectives of a modern online management degree with maximum flexibility, allowing students to tailor the experience to their personal learning style and career goals. The programme is structured into two stages:

Induction (Introductory – Not for Credit)

Your journey begins with an orientation module designed to familiarise you with the online learning environment, academic expectations, and support services. This self-paced module carries no credits but ensures you are confident with the tools, style of study, and resources available.

Stage 1 – Six Taught Modules (120 Credits)

All students complete the following compulsory modules, carefully curated to cover the key areas of modern management:

  • Organisational Behaviour
    Explores the foundations of management thinking, the dynamics of people within organisations, and the evolution of management theory. Students analyse real-world experiences to build a framework for understanding organisational behaviour and management practice.
  • Essentials of Risk Management
    Examines the principles, functions, and practical applications of risk management in global business contexts. Students evaluate best practices, strategies for minimising risk, and case studies that demonstrate how organisations navigate uncertainty.
  • Digital Marketing
    Provides a deep dive into the challenges of digital marketing, e-commerce, and consumer behaviour in online environments. Students apply modern theories and industry practices to create strategies that drive digital business success.
  • Applied Leadership
    Focuses on leadership and organisational culture, exploring how leaders shape teams, decision-making, and performance in international business. Real-world case studies and team-based exercises bring theory into practice.
  • Sustainable Finance
    Introduces environmental, social, ethical, and governance (ESG) perspectives in finance. Students examine sustainable approaches to assets, debts, insurance, derivatives, and currencies, from both private and public-sector viewpoints.
  • Strategic Management
    Develops the ability to navigate complex strategic challenges, select and apply conceptual tools, and critically evaluate organisational issues. Students enhance their problem-solving, analysis, and communication skills while mastering strategy development.

Stage 2 – Business Project (60 Credits)

In place of a traditional dissertation, students complete an applied business project. This involves identifying a relevant business challenge, selecting appropriate analytical methods, and conducting original research. The project bridges theory and practice, offering tangible impact for your current organisation or serving as a launchpad for a new venture.

Learning Approach

  • No outdated, exam-heavy assessment methods. Instead, students work on case studies, essays, and applied projects that directly connect to their careers.
  • All modules are developed and delivered by experienced faculty, ensuring academic rigour and professional relevance.
  • The programme attracts ambitious candidates — average applications are not accepted. Admission is reserved for those who demonstrate commitment and potential to excel.
