MBA/ MA Specialised Top up

As an ambitious and driven student, you will bring your work experience to the programme. This might be from a functional role, or a profession such as law or accounting. In either case, you will have a considerable depth of experience in one specific area. This MBA will help you to gain a broader understanding of business by exposing you to key aspects of it and showing you how it all fits together. Conversely, you might have had a more varied role, perhaps in running a small business where you have some understanding over a range of business activities, but need help in developing your existing business knowledge further. In both cases our MBA will update your management toolkit and give you a broader and stronger profile to enhance your career. The MBA is not just an academic course. It will enhance your understanding of the practical side of a business.
