All the programmes, if studied full-time, last for a year and are spread over 4 terms.

Research activities in the School of Business tend to be clustered around the personal expertise and interests of individual members of faculty. In this respect we are no different from other university business schools; but due to our relatively small size, it does mean that we have to be highly selective in the opportunities we pursue and we focus our resources in research areas relevant to our student and client base.
