Online MBA

Enroll today at the London School of Business’s Online MBA programme.

The Masters of Business Administration is a prestigious postgraduate qualification that provides an overview of fundamental business principles and practices. Top employers highly value it. While MBAs are at the same level of education as any other Masters courses, they are usually studied once you have gained a few years of professional industry experience rather than straight after completing your undergraduate degree.

Completing an MBA can lead to a better salary, improved professional reputation and a massively expanded network of business contacts. If you are a graduate with ambitions for a successful Executive career, an MBA could be just what you require.

An MBA can often lead to a promotion, increased earnings or a career change. Did you know that graduates from business schools in the Financial Times Global MBA Ranking (2018), gained between 44% and 182% salary increase after completing the course?

MBAs are known and respected globally, therefore if you are interested in working abroad then the qualification will be beneficial – particularly as the business schools in the UK are so well regarded. An MBA can also help you to specialise in your current sector or a new one.

The majority of MBA students are often international ones, giving you a unique chance to network with like-minded business people from diverse backgrounds. In this way, you can develop your cultural intelligence and build a strong network for your current or future company.

Students can choose from 5 specialised pathways as below:

  • General

  • Marketing

  • Finance

  • International Business

  • Human Resource Management

Chief technology officers must be skilled in leadership, project management, and information technology.

Information technology directors manage a company’s IT operations, provide departmental leadership, and develop business relationships with vendors to secure the best pricing options. Directors must present effective strategies, policies, and guidelines to company management for approval.

Senior database administrators must frequently collaborate with others, manage and mentor teams, and delegate work. Earning an MBA can help professionals compete for these roles by providing vital soft skills in people management and communication.

In working with clients, these professionals supervise teams, gather information, analyze data, develop solutions to issues, and make recommendations to managers. Senior management consultants must have keen analytical, interpersonal, and problem-solving skills.
