MBA Strategy & Operations — one admission, a shared core, two named specialisations.
Online or on campus
A double-path MBA for managers who set direction and then have to deliver it. Shared general-management core, then pathways in Strategy (competitive analysis, corporate development, transformation) and Operations (process, supply chain, service delivery), ending with a capstone that connects a strategic choice to an operating plan. The University of Brigant teaches this award to one academic standard whether you study on campus in Edinburgh or on the tuition-free online pathway. Assessment is identity-checked; the marking scheme does not change with your postcode. This is an academic MBA award; where a field has a licensing or registration route, that remains a matter for your professional body or regulator. You will work through the material as a practitioner-researcher: applied methods, real or anonymised cases, and a supervised capstone or dissertation as the final component. Faculty mark whether you noticed the constraints a slide deck usually hides.
The programme carries 42 credits across four assessed modules. Delivery is tuition-free (£0) on the online pathway. Transcripts use letter grades and a GPA scale consistent with University of Brigant awards. No professional-body logo is used in marketing to imply endorsement.
