Location of Middlesex University

Middlesex University Business School's MBA blends business knowledge, management and leadership development in a unique programme.

The MBA is taught at the University's Hendon campus in north London. The Executive programme allows busy executives and those running their own businesses to prepare for a rapidly-changing future.

The emphasis within the MBA is on practice, and the underlying theme relates to enterprise and consulting, culminating in a final project related to a real business idea.

The Modular MBA programme starting in September is studied part-time over three years. You replicate the experience of the Full-Time MBA and join a new Full-Time cohort for each of your three years.

The Full-Time MBA programme starting in September is studied full-time over one year.

Who is the Middlesex MBA for?

* Our MBA is designed for practising managers who want to gain a generalist perspective on management
* It has been developed for those wanting to develop their entrepreneurial and consultancy skills - to progress in an established company or to set up an independent venture
* It is an MBA for those who are serious about practice. We do not ask you to complete a dissertation - instead we have a project module worth one third of the programme's credits which enhances your entrepreneurship skills or your ability to act as a consultant to your own or another organisation.

An MBA is the biggest investment you will make in your career development, and we ensure you make a return on this through careers coaching from internal and external career specialists at relevant points in the programme.


Contents

* The programme covers six major management themes: human enterprise, strategy dynamics, products and processes, finance and economics, customer focus and management perspectives. Each of these themes is taught through four five-week units providing you with an intense, extensive coverage of management.
* Two-day team building and leadership residential course within first three weeks included in the programme's fees
* A residential field trip to examine the luxury goods industry in Milan or Paris included in the programme's fees
* Session on career and personal development coaching with external specialists - minimum of two full-day sessions
* Business planning and strategy simulation workshops.

The project module involves taking on a major piece of work, ideally for a real company based in London or elsewhere. We plan to develop corporate placement opportunities which will be exclusively offered to high-achieving students on a competitive basis.
