MSc International Business by Research adopts an active learning approach with a strong emphasis on real-world application to create a practical and professional course for international students.

The course aims to deliver an inclusive curriculum though an inclusive approach. This encourages integration and collaboration between students who work with others to tackle issues and problems that have relevance to the business world.

There is a strong emphasis on empirical research and the course culminates in an opportunity for students to complete an empirical research project that critically explores and implement theories to real-world issues. This increases a students knowledge and understanding and improves ability to think critically and analytically while operating in a global context.
