Course details
Welcome to the Global Part-time MBA at Manchester Business School; only two years long, with options to accelerate study even further, this is an MBA that fits around your career without compromising rigour. It offers as much face-to-face time as most full-time programmes, yet you only study on campus three times a year.Each course is structured around an intensive, three-day workshop - held conveniently in Dubai or any MBS international centre - where you learn in small multinational groups from expert faculty and talented peers. At either side of these workshops, online lectures and discussions enrich your learning.
The programme culminates in a six-month live company project, where you will put everything you've learned into practice. It's an opportunity not to be missed and we hope you can join us.
