The full-time programme begins on 24th September 2012 and runs through to mid-September 2013. The programme is intensive but is structured to include study breaks and to allow time to absorb the learning and complete your assignments.
Induction
After registering with the University on 24th September, the Induction Programme runs from Tuesday 25th to Friday 28th September. This period will help you in your return to education and will explore how to perform to your best and meet the academic requirements of your Masters degree.
Stage 1 (October 2012)
Between Monday 1st and Thursday 4th October you will study your first intensive module – The Changing Business Environment. Intensively taught over four days, this module sets the ground for the subsequent business fundamental modules.
Stage 2 (October to December 2012)
From Monday 8th October you will study six modules, stretched over 10 weeks. Each module will consist of a three-hour session on a regular weekly basis. The teaching focuses on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays, although occasionally we will also have guest speakers or activities on a Wednesday.
Stage 3 (January to February 2012)
After the Christmas break, you will return to study three integrating modules. These are taught in 4-day blocks (Tuesday to Friday), with a break of a week in-between. These modules mirror a typical ‘executive short-course’ style of teaching, and represent intensive but stimulating immersion.
Stage 4 (March and May-June)
During this period you choose your specialisms and also begin thinking about your major MBA project or consultancy assignment. We offer a wide range of elective modules, all taught in intensive 4-day blocks.
Stage 5 (June to September)
The final element of the programme is the MBA Project, where you will typically be working on a major assignment with an external organisation. Some projects involve a placement in the company itself, while others are based at the University.
