Course summary
The University of South Wales's MBA Global programme is a two-year MBA that offers you the opportunity to gain up to ten months work experience with companies in the UK and overseas.
The MBA Global offers specialist pathways in Finance, HRM, Supply Chain Management, Marketing and Entrepreneurship. It builds on a strong ethos of helping managers and leaders solve complex business problems while developing professionals who will make a strategic difference within the context of their organisations.
It will develop your leadership and strategic thinking skills, including the ability to build successful teams and navigate growth within an uncertain, resource-constrained and competitive business environment. You will gain insights into how to prepare, plan and react efficiently to a rapidly changing business world.
During the course you will enjoy an extracurricular programme – Global Choices - that includes masterclasses with leading figures from the spheres of business and government. In recent years, our guests have included Lord Jonathan Evans, former Head of MI5; Lord George Robertson, former NATO Secretary General; Julia Gillard, former Prime Minister of Australia, and Sir Tony Blair, former UK Prime Minister. You will also be able to learn from the experience of entrepreneurs and business leaders in Wales, forging links we hope you will take into your future careers as MBA Global alumni.
