Overview

What makes the Bath MBA distinctive 

Theory can only take you so far. Our distinctive Multi-Project Suite gives you four applied projects rather than a traditional final dissertation. 

You’ll work in teams on real organisational and business challenges across social action, consulting and change management, and entrepreneurship, before bringing your learning together in a final consolidating project. 

You’ll also engage with organisations through guest speakers, company visits, case studies and live business challenges. 

See the bigger picture 

Our integrated modules bring together core business subjects rather than teaching them separately. This reflects how organisations operate and helps you understand how decisions in one area of a business affect another. 

You’ll explore contemporary topics including sustainability, data-driven decision-making and disruptive technology, building the broader perspective and adaptability to navigate change. 

Prepare for your next career move 

Whether you know the path you want to take or are still exploring your options, the Bath MBA will help you focus your goals, build your confidence and prepare for what comes next. 

Career development starts early. With support from our dedicated MBA Careers Team, you’ll have time to explore your options, build your professional story and prepare for applications, interviews and employer conversations. 

You’ll also have access to coaching and mentoring to reflect on your strengths, develop your leadership approach and make informed decisions about your future. 

Challenge your thinking 

You’ll study alongside experienced professionals from different countries, industries and career backgrounds. Working in Learning Teams will expose you to different perspectives, challenge your thinking and strengthen your ability to collaborate effectively with others. 

You’ll learn from the experience of those around you while contributing your own, building relationships that extend beyond the classroom.
