Master of Business Administration MBA: International experience

The Kingston MBA is a truly international experience. The programme is designed to help you operate successfully in a global business environment as well as in London.

International teaching

We enjoy relationships with institutions across the globe, in areas including Moscow, Athens, Thessaloniki and Larissa. We are constantly looking build partnerships with other destinations.

The global nature of the programme means that the teaching is informed by international best practice and research.

International networking

The diversity of nationalities among students and staff, plus the international alumni associations, create excellent networking opportunities. Students find it easy to meet their international counterparts thanks to:

• international study weeks and study trips;
• international week in Kingston – this takes place at the beginning of September each year, bringing together MBA students from our programmes in Moscow, Athens, Thessaloniki, Larissa and Cyprus. It provides a full programme of social, networking and business events, which we also encourage our UK students to attend; and
• international electives delivered in Moscow – UK students have the opportunity to take option modules in Moscow ('Global Business' and 'International Marketing'). This allows them to work more closely with their Russian counterparts and develop an international network.

One meeting between a UK and a Russian MBA student during international week 2006 even led to a wedding – on graduation day 2007.
