Educational Aims of the Programme
The MBA aims to develop the knowledge, skills, and behaviours to prepare learners for senior leadership and strategic management roles. The MBA provides learners with a holistic view of business using both theoretical knowledge and practical application. The central underpinning themes of the programme are transformation (both individual and organisational) and sustainable business practices. In addition, learners’ digital skills will be developed and enhanced to increase impact within these themes and the programme.
