The Edinburgh MBA provides an ideal opportunity to explore aspects of leadership and group dynamics amidst the stunning landscape of the Scottish Highlands.

Firbush, the University’s outdoor centre on the south shore of Loch Tay, offers unrivalled facilities in a stunning setting
The outdoor development weekends are based at the University’s own facility on the banks of Loch Tay and provide an unrivalled opportunity to mix with students drawn from all the Edinburgh MBA variants. With the emphasis on enjoyment, the weekend further extends the opportunities for cultural exchange and mutual learning.
New for 2010 on the full time MBA programme we have developed an additional unique week long leadership module also taking place in the Scottish Highlands.
“Close to Loch Tay in a beautiful part of Perthshire, Firbush is a great facility for water-sports, cycling and hill-walking. It gives you the opportunity to mix with both full-time and part-time MBAs and although there is a semi-serious side with some of the group activities, most of it is about enjoying the outdoors and mixing with different people from the MBA.”
Alistair Hay, Part-time MBA
