Program overview

Our learning blends developing individual analytic capabilities with team work, leadership, and communication skills. Strategy and Leadership modules provide you with analytic capabilities to decompose complex problems, devise solutions, and apply your skills in practice through experiential learning modules such as Strategy Live. Innovation, Digital Business, and Finance modules provide you with the practical skills necessary to transform organisations to create value for customers. Career Planning and Development and research modules equip you with tools and resources to develop your own career strategy and how to solve real problems. The capstone of the programme is a paid Work Placement, Dissertation, or Business Research Project where you learn to apply the lessons to a real-world issue. Modules are typically taught in blocks of two full days every two weeks.
