Requirements

Entry Requirements

We are pleased to confirm that our New students webpages are now available for students starting this course in September 2025. Here you can find links to useful information about registering, course start dates, arriving on campus what to expect before and when you arrive.

We automatically send a message via your Welcome website plus an email to notify you once your Preparing to Study information is available. It is important that you regularly check your Welcome website for new messages.

You'll need:

an honours degree of a minimum 2:2 or above from a recognised higher education institution or equivalent from a recognised overseas institution, and;
three years post-graduation relevant management/organisational experience.

Post-graduation experience is vital on the MBA programme. We draw on students' professional experience within our sessions but also within the assessments on the programme. Students learn a great deal from their peers gaining valuable insights into different industries, cultures and experiences. The MBA is as much about professional development as it is academic.

If you do not meet the above requirements but have at least three years management experience and equivalent qualifications, we will consider you on an individual basis.
