Course Overview & Course Objectives

The course will provide students with theoretical and practical concepts of management. The MBA’s general orientation prepares students for roles in general management and in addition provides a choice of specialised functions. The emphasis is on developing a sound working knowledge of core disciplines and the analytical skills necessary to understand and direct the work of other functional and operational specialists.

The main aim is to produce an impressive group of individuals who demonstrate a commitment to lead effectively, to exercise their strong interpersonal skills and to continually develop their managerial potential.

The MBA offered by the School of Business targets applicants seeking the intrinsic reward of knowing their work makes a difference to the well being of their organisation and its stakeholders.

In addition to providing economically competitive, market attractive and educationally robust management education, the course is designed to enable students to:

• Develop as high potential individuals capable of serving the advanced management needs of local, national and global enterprises.
• Develop knowledge and competencies for operational and strategic perspectives.
• Acquire a sound working knowledge of the core disciplines of business supplemented by an in-depth study of an advanced international specialisation.
• Develop the conceptual frameworks and skills of critical analysis applicable to entrepreneurial operations in a global economy.
• Add to the momentum of a business career, rather than be a competitor to it, through offering a range of flexible delivery methods.
