The University of Strathclyde Business School, founded in 1948, is a pioneering, internationally renowned academic organisation that shapes and develops the business minds of tomorrow and prides itself on being 'a place of useful learning' with wide-ranging connections to industry.
Studying an MBA at Strathclyde means you are part of a business school with triple accreditation from the three main business school accreditation bodies – AMBA, EQUIS and AACSB. We've held triple accreditation since 2004 and we were the first business school in Scotland to achieve this distinction. Our MBA has been accredited by AMBA since 1983. We were also the first business school in Scotland to be awarded the Small Business Charter Award, which recognises our world-leading support for scaling Scottish firms through innovation, internationalisation and leadership.
Our MBA students benefit from our innovative Global Practitioners initiative: our Global Practitioners are a new class of colleagues from a diverse range of industries and backgrounds, reflecting the broad nature of subjects addressed in our general management programmes and the rich variety of students and colleague profiles in our learning environment.
gain an internationally-recognised qualification
learn in a cross-cultural environment
study strategy with internationally-acclaimed academics
develop confidence as a manager and leader
improve your career prospects or change career direction
Why this course?
If you choose to study your MBA full-time in Glasgow over 12 months, you can expect a stimulating and challenging experience.
Your year with us is an opportunity to stretch yourself to the maximum, to be challenged and inspired by the faculty and your colleagues and to make lasting friendships around the globe.
At the end of the year you’ll have gained skills and abilities to help you realise your career aspirations. Studying full-time allows you the opportunity to focus on the course rather than trying to juggle study and work.
Special features
The full-time course is 12 months - 10 months are spent taking part in classes, group-work and personal development processes, and two months completing the MBA project
It allows you to take time to embark on life planning and in many cases reinventing or re-planning your career
There are a number of classes designed to identify your personal strengths and weaknesses
The course is intensive and relies heavily on teamwork throughout – encouraging cooperation rather than competition
As the full time MBA route of study is normally undertaken by those changing careers or considering starting up their own business, the programme has a more formal, integrated careers development element.
