Executive Master of Business Administration (Engineering)

Research shows that both students and employers want management education to be relevant to the work environment. Flexible delivery of learning is also a key desire of employers and of mature students who may be working full-time and balancing their working life with personal commitments and academic study. This programme offers the opportunity to achieve this flexibility while delivering engineering management education relevant to the workplace and with recognised qualifications.

The programme has a broad focus and is designed to suit participants from all sizes of enterprise. Students build on their knowledge from the work environment and previous learning, while developing a critical and theoretical perspective that informs their own developing management practice.

Study is modular, with only the occasional requirement to meet with tutors face to face. The majority of study is undertaken under tutor direction by students in their own time and location, supported via the university's online resources and virtual learning environment, and supplemented by campus workshops.

The programme aims to develop individuals with the confidence and competence in the application and integration of business management knowledge within a strategic framework.
