Food and agriculture is right at the heart of those issues. The MBA programme is designed for those that have had a bit of experience and can build on that experience to develop their own leadership skills.

We have this new novel MBA in water management driven by industry and practitioners looking at a holistic view of integrated water management and the importance of water resources.
