It’s not just what you learn that makes the Global MBA so innovative – it’s how you learn, with a “stackable” format that offers unprecedented flexibility and affordability for a graduate degree, online or otherwise.
The Global MBA is made up of six capabilities - Strategising, Leading, Analysing, Influencing, Adapting, and Problem Solving. There are four units of study under each capability. Students admitted to the degree need to successfully complete all 24 units (i.e. achieve 120 credit points) in order to graduate. Each unit is worth 5 credit points.
