The Cass MBA is offered in the following three formats:
Full-time (12 months)
Executive (part-time evenings 24 months)
Modular (part-time, one long weekend once a month over 24 months)
Each programme consists of three main elements:
1. The course begins with a core m a n a g e m e n t programme taken by
all participants and assessed by coursework and examinations.
2. Then you move forward to take a range of elective courses. All courses are designed to integrate theory and practice and inform you of the latest business developments and are chosen from options designed to address both breadth and
depth in each subject from which you can design the MBA most suited to your needs.
3. The final element of your MBA focuses on a Business Mastery Project that provides an opportunity to put your skills into practice and develop your managerial capabilities.
The Cass MBA uses innovative delivery methods in addition to formal lectures such as the mentor system which is at the heart of our collaborative learning approach.
