Students have many opportunity to network with each other and also with the University of Nottingham students from the UK and China campus.
IF you aspire to run your own business, a business degree or even a Master of Business Administration (MBA) from the University of Nottingham Malaysia (UNM) is ideal for you.
The right course gives you a holistic view of current and prospective business landscapes which will be helpful for your business venture.
As an aspiring entrepreneur, you would need to be armed with a slew of skillsets that include technical, business-related and interpersonal competencies, to succeed.
“Our business graduates possess the skillsets and building blocks to develop resilient and agile strategies and lead organisations that meet future business needs, especially the sustainability imperative,” said Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences dean Dr Jason Pandya-Wood.
“In a competitive business environment, graduates and entrepreneurs need to understand consumers, build the core competencies of the firm, and design appropriate strategies and positioning through effective marketing and branding,” he added.
Established in 2000, Nottingham University Business School (NUBS) Malaysia has over two decades of experience in teaching and scholarship in business, economics, management, and finance – providing students with insights into Asian business growth and development during their studies.
“At NUBS Malaysia, students learn all this during their degree, and they apply it through individual and group assessments, and in the clubs and societies at the university,” he said.
Once enrolled in the MBA programme, students would be privy to invited industry and thought leaders along with short workshops organised to introduce students to new technologies and contemporary business challenges.
UNM students are able to study at a stunning campus.
Students would also have the opportunity to take electives on business in the current digital environment and take part in highly anticipated international study tours which offer students the opportunity to gain direct knowledge of doing business in various parts of the world, including emerging markets.
Aspiring entrepreneurs would be able to take several entrepreneurship-focused courses that encourage students to investigate and experience the processes involved in creating a new venture, including through a gamified learning environment, alongside the generation and assessment of entrepreneurial ideas.
Furthermore, NUBS students can build connections across the three University of Nottingham campuses. Students with good academic standing have access to campus mobility or exchange programme opportunities.
“Some students spend a semester in our UK or China campus, or other universities worldwide through the Universitas 21 exchange programme.
“This physical exchange enables students to strengthen their global identity and exposes them to a variety of cultures in the global economy,” said Dr Pandya-Wood.
NUBS is proud to be among an elite group of business schools worldwide to gain “triple crown” accreditation from the three most influential accrediting organisations – AACSB, AMBA, and EQUIS.
Apply now for the September intake by visiting UNM at the upcoming Campus Open Days on July 16, Aug 27 and Aug 28 from 10am-5pm or MBA preview on July 21 from 7pm-8pm. For more information, visit nottingham.edu.my.
