Impact and transformation are at the heart of what we do, which is why we’re about way more than just academic theory. The Cranfield Executive MBA (EMBA) is part-time, enabling you time and space to develop your knowledge, skills and abilities while applying what you learn immediately in your workplace. We've partnered with Grant Thornton, one of the world’s leading professional services providers to offer you an Executive MBA to support your professional development and give you the resources, tools and skills to make a positive impact in your organisation and wider society. This unique partnership combines the best of academic knowledge and commercial insights. You will follow a programme designed to develop critical thinking, self-confidence and resilience in the workplace. Students also have access to the Executive Career Mentoring programme led by both Cranfield and Grant Thornton executive coaches who proactively coach the students to enhance your individual strengths, identify any knowledge or experience gaps, and therefore boost your employability prospects. Most of our academics work in industry, and 100% of our research is rated world-leading or internationally excellent for impact by the Research Excellence Framework (REF) 2021, which is a testament to the real-world application and impact from which our students benefit.
