MBA
Program
This MBA program is an interactive discussion program. Our Face-to-face MBA Workshops
are not compulsory and conducted every week in our Sheung
Wan
Centre.
For each subject, the duration is 8 weeks. It is possible to complete two subjects
simultaneously within this 8 weeks (around 2 months). There is
no examinations in our courses. If you are out of town, you can
still complete your assignment through our online support by our
US faculty. Marks will be given to you every weeks based on the
article review and learning sharing assignments.
A
learner has five years to complete the program from the date
of enrollment
in their first course. It can be completed within 1 year. If
a learner is continuously enrolled and program requirements change,
the
learner
can elect
to complete
the revised curriculum or to complete under the original curriculum.
 Each course focuses on applying theoretical principles and practical experience
to business situations and problems. Case studies, report writing
and in-class asynchronous discussion are blended to assure learners
an opportunity to clarify and assimilate course topics. Assessments
can take a variety of forms including examinations and quizzes,
term projects and written reports. In-class participation is
crucial to learner success and is included as a factor in grading.
The program concludes with BA 590 Research Seminar that provides a capstone experience
in which learners prepare and present a researched report on a
significant topic of interest to the learner.
