The One Planet MBA - Course content

A solid grounding in core business disciplines is acquired through our core modules while elective specialist modules enable you to specialise in your area of interest and tailor the programme to your career needs.

The culmination of your programme is your MBA Project which provides an opportunity to develop and apply innovative business thinking to solve the real-life challenge faced by one of our corporate partner organisations, and develop new regenerative business models in a fast emerging world.

Your MBA project may focus on an issue of relevance to the programme. The Exeter MBA is all about enabling you to develop into senior management roles by helping you contribute innovation and ignite, lead and manage change in a wide range of organisations, such as multi-national organisations, SMEs, NGOs, international organisations and social enterprises.
