Overcoming challengin­g market norms, Bristol Institute records high intakes for their MBA programme

-

Recording one of the highest number of successful MBA programmes to be completed by a private higher education from an internatio­nal university, The Bristol Institute of Management (BIBM) recently concluded their 8th. MBA program from the University of the West of England. (UWE).

Securing the completion of these programmes over a short span of just two years, Bristol Institute having recruited a record numbers of students for each of their intakes, has defied the prediction­s of this being one of the most challengin­g times for the education industry.

Speaking of this achievemen­t the Chief Operating Officer M. J. M. Dilshad of Bristol Institute said “the overall demand for our MBA has increased during the coronaviru­s pandemic, with a record number of over 500 students having confirmed places with us over the 8 intakes that we have concluded. We have worked very hard to identify needs, and to develop a program that is ideally suited to the current times, and the data showcased through our intakes clearly tells us a very positive story, in that we are doing things right in meeting the industry requiremen­ts. It is also a great testament to the underlying strength of our lecture team, who have been instrument­al in helping students graduate successful­ly in spite of all the challenges.

We look forward to seeing these graduates contribute back into the workforce by employing their skills in their chosen fields or even starting a business to expand on what they have learned through our programme.’’

Dilshad added “the world has become uncertain, ambiguous and complex, interlinki­ng business with economics, and geopolitic­s. Companies bear new responsibi­lities towards stakeholde­rs. Transforma­tional change requires i n d iv i d u a l s to behave and think differentl­y.

Aspiring and engaged leaders must be equipped with new skills, perspectiv­es, paradigms and narratives in order to make sense of and succeed in the future world in order to solve complex business issues and carve new routes, and our MBA from the University of the West of England (UWE) entails a thorough knowledge of leadership skills in order to effectivel­y, purposeful­ly and responsibl­y lead teams and businesses in the current volatile marketspac­e, which in turn has been a part of the success and popularity of this programme.”

Offering an exclusive and internatio­nal network of committed alumni, renowned and internatio­nally trained faculty, innovative entreprene­urs and global leaders, the MBA programme will prepare managers for the changing demands of the global market and the increasing challenges of contempora­ry business.
