Programme Delivery

Our Part time MBA takes into account the needs of the working professional. Classroom study takes place once a week over an Afternoon/Evening. You have the option to start in either September or February.

Students normally complete the programme in 24 months. You have the option to take 1 to 3 modules per semester, the amount of modules you take per Trimester will affect the amount of time it takes to complete the Programme.  As a guide the Programme Team recommends that no more than two modules should be taken in any one Trimester. 

Each 15-credit point module requires approximately 150 hours total study time (including time for private study and the preparation of assignments).  This is equivalent to 10 hours per week over each of the 15 weeks of the Trimester.
