Executive MBA scholarships offer for staff

Do you have a leadership or management role within the University and feel that a formal management development programme would help you to perform your role more effectively?

Our Executive MBA is accredited by the Association of MBAs (AMBA) and is ranked 7th in the UK and the best in the north of England according to The Economist Executive MBA 2015 table.

It is a two-year part-time programme, with modules delivered on Thursday to Saturday at Weetwood Hall, the University’s excellent conference facility.

Participants are taught by leading academics and supported by expert coaches and mentors, some of whom who have held senior positions in companies including Rolls Royce, Pepsico and Asda.

Around 30 students per year are enrolled on to the Leeds Executive MBA programme and we have taught high-fliers from employers of the calibre of Lloyds TSB, Halliburton and ITV.

Leeds University Business School aims to make a positive contribution to the professional development of senior colleagues across the University by offering a limited number of scholarship awards to University staff.
