Hayden Blades
Master of Business Administration (H-Watt)
I chose the Edinburgh Business School, Heriot-Watt University MBA because of its distinctive modular approach. My academic focus was always to integrate economic theory with business management. This MBA included core courses that were perfectly aligned to my academic and career interests. My favorite aspect of the programme was the structured, modular delivery of the course. The body of knowledge was clearly delineated and there was no ambiguity about what was required to be a successful candidate for the examinations.
I currently own a consulting company: Business Insight Limited. The knowledge of business management and critical thinking techniques acquired through this MBA allowed me to introduce my clients to management techniques that are quickly understood and easily adopted. As an SBCS student, there was an inherent freedom to question and challenge the veracity of academic thought. Being exposed to lecturers who were academics in their own right and practitioners in their various fields, presented an invaluable opportunity to learn from their personal “case studies!”
Every student must appreciate that certification is not an end in itself but a means to an end. What you do with the knowledge acquired is what counts, not that you have a certificate.
