September 2013 Intake Schedule

Orientation
It may be some time since you last undertook a period of formal academic study, so in order to help you prepare for your studies, your MBA starts by introducing key concepts behind the MBA, and within the first few weeks provides valuable advice and techniques on studying effectively (as well as managing your time).

Sept– Dec: Study takes place on campus for approximately 30- 40 hours per week: students will attend the School between Monday to Thursday (with scheduled sessions on Fridays and Saturdays as well) to participate in lectures, seminars, group work, guest speaker visits, and Career Development Programme (CDP) and Leadership Masterclass Series (LMS) employability workshops.

Jan– April: Study takes place on campus in a similar manner for the remaining taught modules, CDP and LMS sessions.

May - Sept: The Business Project is mainly undertaken from May onwards, with some preparatory sessions before. Students participate in research workshops which include and cover Research Ethics, Critical Thinking Skills and Research Methods. Additional Leadership Masterclass Series are provided during the summer months also. Supervisory support for the Business Project and Professional Portfolio is provided to the end of the programme.

The Brunel MBA academic component comprises six core modules, followed by elective modules in General Management, Healthcare or Aviation and is crowned by a Business Project.
