Ranked among the world’s best (11th in the UK and 37th in Europe, QS Global MBA Rankings 2024), the Leeds MBA programme integrates business and management theory with practice, while also emphasising your personal and professional development. We prioritise practice-based learning, and you’ll have the opportunity to apply your knowledge to real business scenarios.

An MBA challenges how you think and act in business. Employers want more from their managers than knowledge and strategic thinking – they also seek leadership skills, commitment and creativity. The Leeds MBA equips you to meet these challenges.

Entry Requirements

More than three years of postgraduate work experience is required before you apply. Five years minimum of postgraduate work experience is usually desirable. All work experience must include at least three years of appropriate management responsibility (projects, teams, divisions, business units etc.) and show significant career progression.

A good Bachelor degree (equivalent of a UK 2:1 hons degree), or an acceptable professional qualification.
