The Master in Business Administration (MBA) at The University of Edinburgh is an intensive program designed for students with a minimum of three years' managerial experience who wish to progress to more senior and leadership roles in business.
The program immerses students in a world of academic thought, current business practice and applied projects. Successful businesses in the future will be those that can confidently and capably steer a path through a world characterized by intense competition, rapid technological development, economic turbulence and increasing resource insecurity.
Businesses need leaders who can think and act strategically in this volatile environment, managing the risk and challenges involved, but also spotting and seizing opportunities for efficiency, innovation and new business models. Businesses also need leaders who will act responsibly in delivering value to all stakeholders.
The Master in Business Administration (MBA) program enhances students' career potential by giving them a clear focus on the role of the highly sought strategic leader and helps them to progress with confidence. In order to achieve this, the MBA is built on three pillars: Strategic Leadership, Professional Development, and Personalized Approach.
