Wednesday, 17th January 2007, 6.30-8.00pm
MBS, which is currently ranked 22nd in the world by the Financial Times, launched its three distance learning MBA programmes in the region in 2006, and the School already supports over 100 students from more than 20 nationalities following MBA programmes through the new Middle East centre in Dubai, the third international centre after Hong Kong and Singapore. All MBS Worldwide MBA programmes include a high degree of face-to-face contact with MBS faculty and lead to the same award as for full-time, campus-based students.
Randa Bessiso, Middle East Director for MBS Worldwide, believes the sessions are the perfect opportunity to assess the quality of the programmes and the School: "The Information Sessions are run by senior managers and faculty from MBS and allow prospective students to pose questions directly to the team and to meet and talk to current MBA students, as well as other fellow prospective students. Attendees can also visit the new Middle East regional centre and talk one-to-one about their eligibility and suitability for our MBA programmes."
