The Warwick Executive MBA
We recognise that, for some people, returning to study can be daunting. Especially whilst holding down a job and meeting other commitments. With our help and support we know that you will rise to the challenge.
The Warwick Executive MBA sees you attend WBS for a week at a time at regular intervals to study a particular subject in depth. This route combines the flexibility of part-time study with the benefits of interactive learning and is perfect if you want to plan well ahead.
It's particularly suitable if your work involves a considerable amount of travelling, you are based overseas, or you are just really busy and need to schedule well in advance. It minimises disruption to both professional and personal commitments by getting all the teaching done in discrete residential blocks.
Face-to-face tuition is supplemented by extensive pre-reading, and post-module assignments. Most participants complete their studies in three years. However, it is possible to complete it in just over two if you are able to devote more time to study.
It's an immersive method of study using practice-oriented assessment. You'll not only use case studies, but also reflect on your own organisation and those of the other participants. Plus, you take your learning back into the workplace - immediately and practically.
Many participants on this mode are sponsored by their organisation. Both parties benefit from you having direct access to a business environment in which you can test and apply your new thinking and knowledge.
There are two annual intakes for this mode of study: March and October. You can apply to us at any time, but your application should arrive by 15 August for the October 2010 intake, and in 10 January for the March 2011 intake.
The study mode allowed me to study whilst working abroad, because of the excellent format of week-long modules.
I was able to turn knowledge into skills immediately - as I could use my newly acquired knowledge on the job,
sometimes on the Monday after the completion of a module.
