Westminster Business School, University of Westminster

The Westminster MBA Programme
Westminster Business School provides a flexible and personalised learning environment which combines the best of traditional and innovative approaches to management education. The MBA is a general management programme designed to provide you with the knowledge, skills and confidence needed to progress to a career in senior management. The knowledge and skills acquired on the programme are readily transferable and applications are encouraged from public sector organisations as well as the private sector. The Westminster MBA is accredited by the Association of MBAs (AMBA).

Curriculum
You will build on your existing experience and acquire new skills to effectively solve any business challenges that might arise in your future career. The MBA programme curriculum is split into two different yet complementary learning experiences:

The core modules cover the factors that shape the business environment and the functional dimensions of management. They develop cross-subject integrative themes and the development of personal management skills. Two elective modules allow an opportunity for a degree of specialisation to be achieved. The programme also incorporates an international study trip and a written project which provides an opportunity for you to consolidate and apply in a practical setting the knowledge and skills acquired during the programme.

You will receive a week long Induction giving you all the information you need to make the most of your Westminster MBA. You will also have an opportunity to network with your fellow students, some of our MBA alumni and faculty through the series of social outings that are organised for you throughout the year.
