Senior Operations Manager, Pfizer

The UCC Executive MBA programme provided me the opportunity to gain the business, operations and strategy skills to bridge my technical background and position me for a move away from technical focussed roles into more general management roles. 

Over the four semesters the programme teaches an integrative approach to the overlapping core functional elements of Management (Strategy, Finance, Economics, Marketing, Law, etc) and the more personal aspect of Leadership.

This integrative approach challenges you to consider how all functions of a business are intertwined and how each must be considered and balanced.

The programme also invests significant time in balancing personal leadership development and the human dynamics of leading in the modern organisation – an area that challenges your assumptions about both.

The UCC MBA affords a unique and challenging space to add these new skills but also so much more.

The 2 year programme immerses you in a new network of people, disciplines and experiences which broadens your view of the business world and your place in it.

The nature of the Executive MBA programme ensures there is a rich diversity of classmate experience that compliments the frameworks covered in the academic modules.
