Innovative and flexible MBA
The MBA programme helps busy professionals balance the demands of career, family, and school THE hectic schedules of today’s professionals means it may be difficult for them to participate in a traditional or conventional MBA programme. Being a leader in its field, Management & Science University (MSU) knows this only too well and hence has made it its mission to offer flexible MBA programmes through its Graduate Management Centre (GMC). In a business climate that’s growing increasingly competitive the only constant is change. It is within the ambit of this dynamic and vibrant environment that organisations look for people who know how to take positive steps to solve problems and provide leadership. Academic programmes in MSU-GMC are designed to meet specific needs, providing students with the skills to build successful careers. The university’s Master of Business Administration (MBA) programme is focused on identifying solutions, making them work and evaluating the consequences of those actions. Students acquire skills for effective leadership — skills that will help them to identify challenges and opportunities; draw on the latest technology and information; use advanced analytical and planning approaches, and execute plans for positive change. Businesses need leaders who can act prudently and realistically in dealing with change. Most appropriately therefore GMC’s curriculum embraces elements that endorse problem solving and leadership. MSU-GMC welcomes and encourages students from diverse academic backgrounds. Its MBA programme is designed to serve the needs of talented students regardless of their undergraduate degrees. It is a practice-oriented programme that helps busy professionals balance the demands of career, family, and school. The programme contains different mixes of fundamental courses, specialty courses and executive workshop sessions. Each course applies cutting-edge knowledge relevant to the needs of regional and global firms, thus delivering courses that meet the expectations of the market place. Innovative methods of teaching and learning in the curriculum include talks by CEOs and business leaders, regular face-to-face lectures, networking events with industrial leaders, industrial visits, case study approaches, management games, video presentations, class presentations, and on-line interactions. MSU also offers programmes in health sciences, medicine, forensic science, biomedical science, pharmacy, optometry, accountancy, hospitality, management, professional studies, information sciences, graphic design, computer forensic, mobile & wireless technology, and computer engineering.
