The MBA (Defence) programme is offered in partnership from Cranfield Defence and Security at Shrivenham and the School of Management at Cranfield. The programme is designed for military officers, civil service and defence industrial executives looking to contribute more effectively towards future military initiatives and is a development of the successful Association pf MBA's accredited (Masters in Defence Administration) programme, which was offered at our Shrivenham campus for nearly 20 years. It reflects a growing interest both within the UK defence sector and the international defence community for management education.

During this part of the programme, students take the School of Management’s MBA core modules, studying alongside students drawn from all sectors.

In this part of the programme, students take four compulsory defence modules, select one defence elective from a choice of three and choose one general MBA elective theme. Students are also required to take appropriate elements of the School of Management’s Personal and Professional Development module, which serves as the backbone of the MBA programme. In addition, students complete a defence management independent research project.
All teaching takes place at the Cranfield campus in Bedfordshire. Part Two of the part-time option will be delivered on a modular basis.
