When it launched in 1989, the Leicester Global MBA was one of the first AMBA accredited distance learning MBA programmes in the world. Today, over 12,000 Leicester Global MBA alumni worldwide are a testament to our expertise and experience in helping professionals succeed and being a student with us gives you access to this network of international business leaders.
With the Leicester Global MBA you can study fully online and benefit from face-to-face learning to suit your needs. Our online learning environment lets you study anytime, anywhere and includes lectures, live seminars and workshops, interaction with tutors and students and our online study guides. Each year you can attend our annual Leicester Masterclass that takes place at Brookfield, our new £16 million School of Business campus.
All teaching is delivered by School of Business academic staff who combine teaching with research and bring the latest knowledge and skills to their teaching. You'll study in small groups with extensive opportunities for teamwork allowing you to build your professional networks with fellow students and tutors.
