MDIS x UOS MBA – Full/Part-time Available
With our MBA programme at MDIS, students can choose between full-time and part-time study modes. The full-time and part-time MBA programme both have their advantages.
Full-time study allows students to immerse themselves fully in the course, focus solely on their studies, and complete the course in a shorter period. It is also ideal for those who want to devote themselves entirely to their studies and don't have other significant commitments.
On the other hand, part-time study allows students to maintain their work or other commitments while pursuing their academic courses. This allows for more flexibility and the opportunity to apply the knowledge and skills learned in the course to their work in real time. It also enables students to pursue an academic course while still earning an income, which can benefit those with financial obligations.
The choice between full-time and part-time study modes largely depends on individual circumstances and preferences. However, both study methods offer unique advantages and benefits, and students must choose the study mode that best suits their needs and lifestyle.
