Welcome to Executive Master of Business Administration (Top-Up) – September 2026

Welcome to the Executive Master of Business Administration (EMBA) Top-up course, a three-module course covering Contemporary issues in Business, Project Management in Practice and a Negotiated Project.

The course will provide opportunities to apply analytical frameworks to address key challenges and issues within your own organisations, as well as to develop your appreciation of theoretical practices, practical tools, and techniques to achieve successful project management. The negotiated project module will enable you to conduct an applied research project which adresses a specific  organisational need or issue within your organisation.

We look forward to meeting you in the online induction sessions, which will be recorded so that you can revisit them or in the event that you are unable to attend.
