Location of University of the West of Scotland

The University of the West of Scotland Business School has a respected reputation for well-focused programmes that have a highly vocational emphasis. Traditionally, we have strong links with industry and our programmes are designed to equip individuals to perform effectively in the workplace, delivered flexibly to satisfy the demands of both working people and their employers.

Features of the Executive MBA:

* Flexible duration, delivery and attendance
* State of the art facilities in the new Ayr Campus

The Executive MBA, launched in 1998, is an innovative two-year part-time open-learning programme for experienced managers. The programme's flexible delivery and highly vocational emphasis make it particularly suitable for busy executives seeking to develop themselves and their organisations without taking a career break.

The Executive MBA is designed to build on participants' work experience and help them to develop into strong all-round managers while also gaining the prestigious MBA qualification. Managers with an Executive MBA from the University of the West of Scotland bring to their organisations the capacities to recognise and respond to:

* opportunities for growth
* volatility and complex change
* the need to re-invent organisations


Contents

The Executive MBA is designed for managers with work experience and has a real-world emphasis. The programme comprises three stages:

* Certificate in Resource Management
* Diploma in Strategic Management
* Master of Business Administration


Each stage has four modules and lasts approximately eight months. Normally the entire programme takes two calendar years to complete. However, each stage is recognised as a meaningful and respected qualification and participants may choose, if necessary, to take a break between stages. In such cases they are required to complete the programme within five years.

You are normally required to take an English Proficiency Test.

Requirements

Applicants for the Executive MBA should normally hold a second-class Honours degree, or professional equivalent, and at least three years relevant work experience (managerial, supervisory or administrative). Executives with work experience only will be considered for the Certificate and, if their progress is satisfactory, they will be eligible to enrol on the next stages.

It is essential that you have a good command of written and spoken English if you wish to excel in your studies. As a rough guide, a TOEFL score of 550 or above or an IELTS score of 6 or above (5 in each component) are acceptable as evidence of proficiency in English.
