Choosing the MBA to Transform Your Career From Local to Global

Top organisations promote global executives who can thrive and negotiate in multicultural environments, manage across boundaries, and leverage local knowledge and networks.
 

How do you identify an MBA which provides the rigorous international exposure required to develop this ability?

 

 

Global Centres

Business schools with multiple global centres offer global networks to study with and connect with immediately and effectively.

 

Manchester Global MBA students based in the East Asia Centre in Hong Kong also study in Dubai, Shanghai, Singapore centres and the Manchester main campus:

  • As part of the curriculum (3 electives in the second year)
  • Due to clashes in study schedule at their home centre
  • Due to relocation
