Postgraduate Diploma (PGDip) in Business & Management in UK

Leads to the final part of an MBA from the University of Gloucestershire

Our 120-credit Postgraduate Diploma offers a fast-track, value-for-money route to an MBA. It meets the entry requirements of the University of Gloucestershire for the final part of its MBA. It therefore takes you two-thirds of the way to a full Gloucestershire MBA and then you only need to complete the final 60 credits with a dissertation, which can be achieved in months, either at the university or online.

Alternatively, students can progress to master courses at a range of UK universities.

The course has a strong practical element helping to develop postgraduate research skills and further your knowledge and understanding of various aspects of management such as marketing, human resource strategy and financial management. There is also a module on entrepreneurship for those who dream of starting and running their own business.

You will also be encouraged to apply the new information you learn to real-life business situations, enhancing your career prospects and, for those already in employment, applying what you learn to your day-to-day work and thereby increasing your chances of promotion.

It will equip you with the leadership expertise and analytical skills to excel in management and consultancy roles in many areas of business. It’s also suitable for those who wish to run their own business.

Study full-time for 6 months or in our virtual classroom in evenings and at weekends.
