Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between a general MBA and specialized MBA programs?

A general MBA program provides a broad foundation in various business disciplines, covering topics such as finance, marketing, operations, and strategy. It offers a well-rounded education and is suitable for individuals seeking a broad understanding of business management.

On the other hand, specialized MBA programs focus on a specific area of business, such as finance, marketing, healthcare, entrepreneurship, or technology management. These programs delve deeper into a particular field, equipping students with specialized knowledge and skills relevant to their chosen industry or career path.

Why a European MBA?

A European MBA from CMBS follows the educational standards set by the European Union – standards which are highly respected globally and can provide an edge in international job markets. A European MBA often means a focus on international business and a strong emphasis on theory and practical application. Choosing CMBS in Europe offers significant advantages, especially in the post-Brexit educational landscape. A European accreditation not only signals a high standard of education but also facilitates easier mobility within the EU for career opportunities. This is particularly advantageous in an era where professional flexibility and geographic mobility can significantly influence career trajectories. Moreover, studying in Europe provides broader networking opportunities across multiple countries, potentially opening doors across the continent. This global exposure can be particularly valuable in industries where understanding varied markets is key.

Why study a CMBS MBA?

The CMBS MBA distinguishes itself from other MBA programs through its strong emphasis on work-based learning, which integrates real business projects into the curriculum, offering students practical, hands-on experience in their field of study. Additionally, the program offers a diverse range of electives, allowing students to specialise in specific fields such as HR, education, finance, and more. With nine electives to choose from, CMBS students can tailor their educational journey to align closely with their career aspirations. This approach not only enhances their learning experience but also increases their relevance and impact in their chosen fields. 

Moreover, through CMBS’s partnership with Coventry University (UK), students interested in completing their thesis phase in Malta have the option to receive dual certification—one European and another from the UK at an additional fee. This unique collaboration not only enhances the value of our MBA but also provides our graduates with a broader recognition in both European and UK markets. Students reading for a bachelor’s degree in Malta may also earn a dual certification by completing the last year of their bachelor’s studies in Malta.
