? The outstanding factors of this MBA are that it can be completed in twelve months, at a cost of SLR 395,000. We will ensure our students gain an international exposure by learning directly from the UK lecturers from the university through ? flying faculty ?, who teach fifty- percent of the MBA modules . And the other fifty- percent would be delivered by local lecturers who are industry experts? said Mr. Isthiquar. He further added ? Candidates of the MBA programme will follow a Business Research Module, which is similar to a dissertation but candidates will work on the Business Research Module throughout the twelve- month duration. This will be good relief for our MBA students who are very busy with their work place or business commitments. Furthermore students are assessed on assignments and practical business scenarios, thus they will gain a realworld experience of the theories.
