The Strathclyde MBA has been available outside the UK since 1988, and over 5000 participants have now graduated with a Strathclyde MBA. Currently, over 1600 are studying the programme in their own countries. The success is the result of a flexible learning delivery structure, that combines part-time, full-time and open learning modes of study. This approach allows participants to graduate within 2 years of starting the programme. However, study may be spread over a longer period if desired.
