Master of Business Administration

Introduction

The purpose of this program is to develop positive, goal-oriented business leaders and managers and practitioners who thoroughly understand modern business principles and practices and who apply their knowledge and skills in the workplace in ways that demonstrate commitment to practical and intellectually-based strategic business leadership practice.

The great challenge facing business educators today is one of preparing current and future employees who are visionary, principled and results-oriented. This program seeks to do exactly that.

The program is geared towards assisting students in acquiring skills and understanding at an advanced level in business management and leadership and to equip them to conduct research in this field.

The program also moves away from the conventional focus of producing graduates who primarily focus on quantitative analysis, accounting and finance, marketing and economics to a more revolutionary focus where graduates will be prepared for executive positions, management of corporate divisions, creating start-ups as entrepreneurs or even leading charitable organizations. This program will also help the graduates to have better preparation in critical thinking and communication skills.
