MBA (full-time) in Aston University, Birmingham

The Aston MBA is delivered using a range of innovative and practical teaching practices, whereby you will learn about all the aspects of business through holistic company challenges that impact different business functions. This means, you will get a more realistic, hands-on learning experience. 

You will learn through participation, with your contact time consisting of active, task-based learning. From guest lectures by top executives to practical activities, business simulation exercises to real-life consultancy projects, this hands-on experience ensures a rich and rewarding learning experience. 

A key feature of The Aston MBA is the focus on teamwork and effective collaboration. You will work as part of a group throughout the year on a number of projects. We work with each group, offering specialist coaching and support to help you improve and become a high performing team. These group projects replicate real-life working environments, providing suitable experience and helping to develop your teamwork skills. 

We use a range of authentic assessment methods to help to prepare you for tasks you may encounter in the workplace. You will undertake business activities, including business simulation exercises, compiling project plans and presenting recommendations for consulting projects, pitching for funding from investors and reviewing performance and positioning of organisations. You will also carry out a practical, in-depth business project for your final assessment. The Aston Edge and Personal Leadership Focus modules require personal, critical reflection exercises, which can be hugely rewarding and help to develop your self-awareness. 

A personal leadership development programme which runs throughout the MBA course, The Aston Edge is designed to develop leadership capabilities as well as key soft skills that are highly sought-after by employers.

Delivered through a series of dynamic, engaging leadership workshops and seminars with high profile guest speakers, this module will help you approach and overcome real-world business challenges.
