Overview
Experiential. Transformational. International. The globally-ranked Modular Executive MBA at University College Dublin Michael Smurfit Graduate Business School provides an unequalled opportunity to unlock and develop your leadership potential, accelerate your career and build your global network whilst applying what you are learning in real-time in the workplace.
Key Features
Flexibility is the distinguishing feature of the Executive MBA programme, allowing busy executives and managers to progress their careers (managing personal and professional responsibilities) while gaining an EMBA from UCD Smurfit School.
This programme is really well suited to those juggling demanding careers and for those with young families as well as those based outside of Dublin looking to study at UCD.
One of the main advantages of the UCD Smurfit EMBA in terms of time management is the freedom it gives to participants to plan ahead. Dates are locked in and modules are typically spread out evenly over the course of the programme, which allows participants to make fixed arrangements with colleagues and employers before the start of the programme.
Another feature is that the flexible delivery also allows for participants to come from further afield nationally. Typically students will be on campus once a month (Friday and Saturday) with an additional Saturday morning monthly online session and will also undertake a number of week-long modules over the course of the two year programme.
Careers
The Smurfit MBA is transformative. The MBA participants have access to a dedicated careers service which will assist you in developing the necessary skills for career development and advancement, including networking, CV building, career strategy and interviews.
An active network of over 4,000 MBA alumni and over 90,000 business alumni worldwide, across a wide range of industry sectors, provides MBA students with a wealth of opportunities for direct connections and mentoring.
