Overview

Key facts

The Business Administration programme of the University of Glasgow has been taught since 1976. Our programme is AMBA accredited, which means our MBA is internationally recognised to the highest standard.

We purposefully recruit a small yet diverse cohort of students. As a result you will receive dedicated 1-2-1 teaching and support whilst also being able to take the time to learn from your fellow students’ experience and skillset.

‌Classes are interactive, striking the right balance between tuition and discussion.

Throughout the year we host a series of social, networking and guest speaker events to enhance your learning experience and help you get the most out of your MBA.

We offer an MBA Professional Development and Employability Award. This is a unique initiative which includes an opportunity for you to be mentored by one of our MBA alumni.
