    Course Summary

    An MBA could be just what you need to begin a rewarding career in the business world, or to change the trajectory of your current career towards more fulfilling, responsible roles. MBA degrees generally are the internationally recognised standard that qualifies graduates in management, strategy and general business skills. Added to Ulster’s reputation, it will definitely open doors for you.

    You’ll study marketing, economics, finance, leadership and strategic decision making, as well as the finer points of organisational behaviour and operations management. Perhaps more importantly, you’ll do so in a richly diverse environment alongside students from all over the world – what better way to learn to work in an international business context?

    By the time you complete the program you’ll be able to apply the theoretical knowledge you’ve amassed to real world business situations and challenges, and develop a deep, detailed understanding of nearly any business and its unique place in today’s global, interconnected marketplaces.

    If you are changing direction after starting in another career area, you will possess valuable work experience and professional awareness. Many employers actively seek candidates with these benefits. Our network of contacts, a dedicated employability service and a reputation in the legal profession mean we also have an outstanding track-record of finding students legal employment.Many employers favour GDL students in an increasingly competitive legal job market. Through studying another degree subject, you will have gained many transferable skills. By taking the conversion route into law, you are showing motivation and determination by choosing law at a later stage than some others. This looks good to employers.
