Leaders face urgent global challenges which are highly prominent in the food and agricultural sector. This course equips you with the leadership skills and specialist knowledge that is required to navigate dynamic business environments, whilst enabling you to take a strategic role in shaping the future of the sector.

Course overview

This course will prepare you to address global challenges and to successfully navigate through a time of uncertainty and change in the food and agriculture sector, through the development of responsible leadership skills and management expertise.

You will study business modules in responsible leadership, sustainable business strategy, and financial decision making, which comprise the foundation of the MBA curriculum. You will study a further five sector-based specialist modules which cover the economics of food production, challenges and solutions for achieving a more sustainable agricultural future, the significance of scale in farming and food supply, food marketing and sustainable consumption practices, and the policy environment in which the agri-food industry operates.

The aim of the course is to develop responsible leaders with the skills needed to shape the food and agricultural sector for a more sustainable future, whether as senior leaders, consultants, entrepreneurs, or policy advocates. To that end we encourage you to choose a dissertation research topic that has the potential to be impactful and create change. The research skills module will equip you with the skills required to develop and execute your own research investigation.

An important part of the MBA experience is the opportunity to explore sector issues with your peers in a collegiate environment. Your course peers will, like you, be existing managers with at least three years professional work experience at a managerial level, who are keen to bring about change and make an impact in this sector. Discussion and debate, critique and team problem solving will ensure you are prepared for the changing landscape of business within the food and agriculture sector.
