FAQs
Whilst students may be familiar with the Master’s in Business Administration (MBA) qualification, a Global MBA offers something slightly different. Whereas a standard MBA programme will focus on ensuring individuals develop the skills needed to create, build and grow a business, a Global MBA goes one step further. Individuals will understand how to take these businesses global and how to navigate the challenges of an increasingly globalised world.
