Build your career momentum by studying while you work, bringing fresh insights into your workplace straight away. As part of a global MBA experience, you will gain valuable ideas and perspectives not only from the programme curriculum but also from the diverse experiences and international perspectives of faculty and fellow students. This will enhance your learning and broaden your professional outlook.

Build meaningful connections

Your journey begins within a core cohort of peers, providing a stable foundation for lifelong professional and personal bonds. Beyond your immediate group, you’ll also join previous cohorts on some courses, dramatically expanding your reach within the Online MBA community. Through collaborative projects, live tutorials, and social engagement, you will cultivate a diverse and powerful network that serves as a cornerstone for your evolving professional network.

Studying online should not feel isolating. Our goal is for you to feel not only part of a vibrant community but also part of a close-knit family of ambitious professionals. This sense of connection is at the heart of our global MBA experience, no matter which version of the MBA at the University of Edinburgh Business School best fits your goals and circumstances.

Global insights

Advance your career and skill development by learning from other students in your online MBA cohort who join the programme from a broad range of industry sectors, countries and nationalities. This diversity is central to experiencing innovative ideas, life experiences, and cultural imperatives.

Students bring their own strategic knowledge and management experience into the virtual classroom and online forums. The connections you build with professionals from around the world during the online MBA programme are likely to last well beyond graduation, giving you a long-term network for collaboration, idea-sharing, brainstorming insights, and mutual support.

Courses are led by a diverse, international faculty who bring both deep academic expertise and practical relevance to the virtual classroom. Each member of our teaching faculty is an experienced educator, researcher, and consultant, offering valuable insights grounded in real-world experience.
