The REGENT Business School’s MBA was formulated with a vision to develop managers and leaders for the local, regional, international and global market.

There’s a common misconception that you need to know exactly what you want from your career before studying an MBA. In reality, undertaking an MBA actually helps you achieve clarity on your professional goals. It challenges your thinking, and helps you develop skills in areas you might not have previously considered. The modules are structured to provide a unique opportunity to gain insights into several industries, gain valuable new perspectives on your current organisation and role, as well as explore interesting aspects of the business world.
The collective belief that the ideal MBA candidate is a “corporate power player” couldn’t be further from the truth. MBA candidates come from a variety of backgrounds, industries and positions. In fact, a class of MBA students is generally a mix of professionals from areas like the public sector, engineering operations, retail, finance, aviation, non-profit and even science backgrounds.
International ranking authority, Eduniversal has ranked the REGENT Business School MBA, 4th in the category of Public Administration / Management in Africa for 2016. The REGENT Business School MBA is the product of months of engagement and consultation amongst REGENT Business School academics, interested
students and industry practitioners who teach within the MBA programme on a part-time basis; and MBA alumni and representatives of organisations that employ the REGENT Business School’s successful MBA graduates. Such cross sector engagement has produced a curriculum which seeks to address the need for management and leadership education in the private and the public sectors to be simultaneously efficient and performance oriented, in order to foster growth and therefore paying active and special attention to the social fabric and natural environment in which we live and work.
At REGENT Business School an MBA is not just a packaged product for filling voids that exist in knowledge and competencies. It is a vital step in the transformative experience of lifelong learning. Executives are challenged to take a fresh look at themselves, their international colleagues, international business practices, together with their every day business practices, within their organisations as a whole and, the constantly changing dynamic market situation, in order to enhance and understand the subtle nuances that permeate business practice.

All of this allows for experience to be translated into reality by the school, offering guided tuition, drawing from the experience of its teaching staff that, draws its tuition inputs and modes of delivery by means of interaction with students and, from great business minds that, grace the stage of our tuition and delivery platforms.
