The journey

The MBA is more than a course. It's a journey; your journey.

Professionally, the MBA
has been a life changing
experience. I feel much less
an operational manager
now, and far more a
strategic decision maker.

James Perry, employee of Mueller Europe - MBA graduate

We recognise that because each student and each organisation is different, everyone's MBA experience also needs to be different.

This diagram shows that as well as the course content (the modules), there's a much wider MBA experience that goes beyond assimilating information and gaining knowledge.  

It's an interactive process of personal development as well as professional development. We encourage you to contribute your experience and opinions in classes, and use a range of teaching methods to bring the topics to life and help you apply the theory to real business situations. 

As a result, you should find you become more confident, self-aware, and innovative.
