Executive MBA - Choices


Posted Oct 14, 2013 11:10

Hello folks,
I am at crossroads now as I have been accepted for Executive MBA from Manchester (Global MBA Finance) and Strathclyde (Exec. MBA). I have also applied for Warwick and waiting for a decision on my application. My profile is I work in IT of a major investment bank in Glasgow. I would like to know which would be the best option for me.

Really appreciate your opinion.

Cheers

The Global MBA is not an executive MBA. Depending on your career goals, Warwick or Strathclyde might be better.

Hi Duncan,
Many thanks for your response. Manchester call their executive MBA as Global MBA and there would be residential week at their campus. Am I missing something here?

Yes, you are missing that Manchester does not call the Global EMBA an executive MBA, and the entry criteria are not those of a global MBA. The participants are not all executives. Manchester calls it a "part time" MBA, and that's the right way to call it. At the end of this month Manchester will launch an Executive MBA; that's a totally different programme.

An EMBA program is more than "an MBA without the kids," but an experienced cohort does make a difference.
