MBA Business Administration (Sustainability)

The MBA (Sustainability) route allows you to specialise in sustainable business development. As one of the biggest challenges facing organisations in the 21^st century, future industry leaders need a comprehensive understanding of how sustainability impacts business.

Our modules have been developed in partnership with employers, making our course about much more than just what’s in the textbook. Through inspiring guest speakers, group challenges, regular social events, and opportunities to impact local industries, you’ll become a member of a diverse community of aspiring leaders.

Through critical environmental policy analysis, you’ll learn to develop solutions to everyday business challenges and explore how to incorporate environmental strategies into critical business decision-making.

You’ll study two modules per semester and complete an individual research project. Each module is fully supported by an online learning environment where you’ll access all the materials you need.

You’ll also attend weekly seminars where students come together to explore the module topics with fellow aspiring leaders and real industry practitioners.

You’ll submit an assessment for each module to ensure you can progress. Assessments are coursework-based and take a variety of forms, from written reports to academic posters. Each assignment will test your ability to apply your learning in the classroom to real-world problems. The course culminates with a research project, which is a single, major piece of work on a topic of your choosing.

An MBA is one of the most respected qualifications in business. It’s ideal for professionals looking to take the next step into management and senior leadership and it can help you accelerate your career or start your own business as an entrepreneur.

Our graduates have gone on to careers in a variety of organisations around the world and many alumni are entrepreneurs who’ve established their own businesses. Students have secured placements with companies including Nissan, Caterpillar, Fujitsu, Network Rail, and White Lodging Services, as well as small entrepreneurial firms in the public, private, and not-for-profit sectors.

The MBA Sustainability route prepares you for a career in general management or specialist pathways in roles that are focused on environmental policy or strategies.
