Advanced Diploma in Business Administration

Description

Our Advanced Diploma in Business Administration is designed to provide students with the practical areas of management and administration within an organisation, showcasing how different disciplines are integrated at the operational level and linking with the overall corporate strategy to achieve short and long-term objectives. 

Our curriculum is constantly evolving to respond to technological, political and cultural shifts in societies, meaning that students will engage with a range of key topics such as organisational behaviour and management, financial management, business law, and global business management. They’ll also have the opportunity to engage with theories and explore contemporary trends such as big data analytics, artificial intelligence, and digital marketing in the business world, thereby deepening their critical thinking and problem-solving skills to become innovative problem-solvers and strategic thinkers. 

But that’s not all – our course offers a unique focus on sustainability in the circular and digital economy, giving students the tools they need to design and implement business models and strategies that are creative, sustainable, and inclusive. They’ll engage with a range of projects and case studies and learn how to work collaboratively with staff and peers from diverse backgrounds, building the skills needed to succeed in the modern workplace. 

Our course offers a high level of contact time and interactive learning, with experienced lecturers and professionals from the industry who will nurture and encourage student development and support them towards their own learning and professional development goals. From lecture-seminars and bespoke tutorials to independent and collaborative projects, we provide a holistic and socially-engaged experience that emphasises hands-on learning. 

Upon completion of our Advanced Diploma, students will gain knowledge on the business environment and the administrative procedures to apply them effectively in a variety of corporate, government, educational and nonprofit settings. 

We teach via a blend of methods including lectures, flipped classrooms, conversations with experts, critical reflections, self-directed study and field trips, ensuring that students receive a comprehensive and engaging learning experience.
