This page covers MBA (Top-Up) across the departments we work with, including what each asks for and what it charges. It is a 12 Months ( Part-time /Top - Up) postgraduate programme, so the pace is quick and the dissertation carries real weight.
Teaching in Business Administration is assessed through coursework and group work more than examinations, and most departments run a consultancy or company project in the final stage. We currently work with 2 universities on this course across 2 cities.
The lowest English requirement we hold on this course is IELTS 6.5, and departments asking more than that usually expect a stronger academic record too. Tuition ranges from £8,950 to £10,950 a year depending on the department, which is a real difference over the length of the course.
Applications open around a year ahead of the intake. Getting the documents together early is what keeps the September date realistic.
