Students studying this MBA program have the opportunity to earn an additional qualification, a state-recognized degree from London Metropolitan University (London Met), U.K. Students with more than two years' professional work experience can earn a state-recognized MBA, while those with less than two years' experience will earn a state-recognized MSc in International Business Management. To earn both degree titles, students study in a hybrid learning environment.
To obtain the state-recognized MBA, students must complete the following:
Students will carry out a business competency simulation, which is a developed, researched answer to a current management issue based on learning from the two prerequisite simulations (Capstone® and Comp-XM Basix®). It is a work of both academic and business importance, since it reflects the knowledge and learning that a student has accumulated throughout an academic program and, specifically, the simulation experience.
This module adopts a learning-centred, reflective and integrated approach that supports students’ understanding of research-informed practice and research methods, and prepares them to undertake and to communicate a business research project which links context with management theory, evidence and practice.
Building on the Management Learning and Research module, students will develop an independent research project based on an agreed proposal into an organizational or sector issue with the aim of making ethical and socially responsible recommendations for the future of the organization or sector.

Students will produce a full business research report and a management summary on an appropriate topic to a professional and engaging standard that provides the basis for action. As well as encouraging reflection to critically evaluate the success of a business-related project, this will build each student’s knowledge and confidence in the chosen subject to facilitate employability.
