Although I have a scientific background I recently moved into a business position and decided I should refresh my qualifications. The MBA course is perfect because it provides an overview of business activities, a focus on decision-making and analysis, and a portfolio of managerial tools. It also provides the opportunity to share ideas and experiences with international students. Having decided to do an MBA, the University of Exeter was an obvious choice. It is AMBA accredited so I was confident the course would be of a high standard and internationally recognized.
The course offered an attractive mix of core and elective modules that I could tailor to my own training needs. Crucially, Exeter offers the MBA as a part time option - students attend one day per week. I particularly enjoyed Organisational Behaviour and Accounting and Management Information Analysis. In addition to finding the modules interesting and informative I've been able to effectively apply my new skills straight away. The class bonded well and by sharing our own experiences in the lectures we were able to bring the subjects to life.
Taking up a part-time MBA meant that I could continue my work as an Analyst at the Met Office throughout my three year study period. The Met Office greatly supports career development and is sponsoring me during my studies. As you get a fair amount of homework on the MBA course the support of your employer really helps.
