Whether you choose to study full time or part time on campus, in company, or even online, our MBA is designed to provide you with the same excellent learning experience.
Part time
There is no denying that balancing a qualification as demanding as the MBA alongside a busy personal and professional life is challenging, but our students at Derby achieve this, and we are experienced and well-placed to help you through it.
Key features of part time study:
- Study part time over three years.
- Choose class times that fit in with you
- Receive support from a personal tutor.
- Each year is a qualification in its own right (PG Cert, PG Dip then the full MBA), so you don't have to wait until the end of stage three before you benefit.
- Spread out the cost of the MBA - pay for each year in four instalments if you self-fund.
- Apply what you learn to your role straight away, for immediate business impact.
Full time study
Studying full time is a rich experience, and you will certainly have a lot of new information to absorb in a year!
But it means you can benefit from a lot of interaction with other students, make the most of our on-campus facilities such as our newly refurbished library, and just knock on the tutor's door when you need their help.
Key features of full time study:
- Complete the programme in just one year.
- It's a multi-cultural and inclusive learning environment.
- Enhance your employability - we focus on applying theory to real business scenarios.
- Study at a UK university that international students ranked 1st for student support and faith provision, and 3rd for lecture quality, learning technology and employability, out of all the UK's modern universities.
- Benefit from direct tutor support
- It's excellent value for money when
compared with other UK universities.
