Manchester Business School Worldwide
Founded in 1965 as one of the UK’s first business schools, Manchester Business School quickly established a reputation as a leading centre for management teaching and research. Today the school stands alongside the worlds leading business schools. A recent Financial Times survey found that of the top 50 business schools, Manchester Business School is one of the strongest in terms of international focus. MBS Worldwide is part of the University of Manchester which is the UK’s largest university – Manchester Business School is now the biggest campus based business and management school in the UK, attracting students and faculty from across the globe. A Manchester Business School MBA is highly valued by executives and employers worldwide.
It develops broader business knowledge and an understanding of the whole business process; it provides students with an exceptional portfolio of theoretical and practical business skills; it marks students out as being academically well qualified and, crucially, able to apply what they have learned to the workplace. Most importantly, employers all over the world recognise its value; a hallmark qualification with international recognition. Manchester’s blended learning MBAs lead to the same award as an on-campus programme and have all the advantages of a high quality Manchester MBA – alongside the flexibility to study from anywhere in the world. The Manchester MBA is prestigious and unique – a guarantee of quality is that we are one of only a small number of business schools worldwide to be accredited by the Association of MBAs (AMBA), AACSB International and EQUIS. The School is a member of the European Foundation for Management Development (EFMD) and the Association of Business Schools (ABS).
For more than ten years individuals from over 80 countries and corporate clients have benefited from Manchester Business School Worldwide MBA programmes. We are acknowledged as leaders in our field dedicated to developing, supporting and administering distance education globally. We do this through our own permanently staffed support centres in the UK, Hong Kong, Singapore, Dubai, an association with the Jamaican Institute of Bankers, and through carefully selected partners in a number of other international destinations. Blended learning is flexible, portable and highly effective. Evidence suggests that students tend to be more self disciplined, independent, motivated and investigative than classroom based students – and it reduces opportunity cost.
One of the main benefits of undertaking an MBA is the opportunity to network with current and former students, many of whom will be at the top of their profession throughout the world. With over 5,000 alumni in 130 countries, the contacts made prove invaluable, as does the continuous professional development on offer.
