MBA (Part-time) University of Hong Kong
To help busy workers find time to boost their knowledge, the University of Hong Kong offers its part-time MBA in a modular mode to allow students to focus on one area of study at a time.
'Each module lasts about five weeks. This offers tremendous benefit to the students as they might have intensive work commitments in a particular period and, hence, can choose to study for five weeks only,' says executive director Sachin Tipnis.
The programme is designed to help students manage and capitalise on the region's dynamic and fast-evolving business environment. 'As the Asian economy continues to grow, it is vital that business leaders from the region are exposed to cutting-edge business education which is tailor-made for achieving success in a dynamic arena,' says Tipnis
The programme adopts an experiential-learning approach, with a strong focus on the mainland and Asia. 'Students will be taught how to apply business principles and models to real-world business problems. The assignments are based on business proposal-writing and there is plenty of presentation work to relate the learning experience to real-life situations. There are also case studies and group discussions,' says Tipnis
The programme features four themes that are related to the success of multinational and regional firms in today's Asia - namely, entrepreneurship innovation and operation management, managing in China and Asia, financial management, and marketing and services management.
