Programme Overview
Uniquely situated in the central business district of Singapore, one of Asia's most cosmopolitan cities, the Singapore Management University (SMU) is establishing new frontiers in the ambit of business education for Singapore and Asia. SMU's abundance of facilities has elevated its visibility and standing to that of many of the world's leading urban universities.
Building upon this bedrock, the Lee Kong Chian School of Business is gaining momentum to be positioned as one of Asia's leading business schools.
The SMU MBA emphasises quality over quantity and ensures that your MBA experience with us will be both enriching as well as rewarding. Our professors, industry experts and practitioners selected from about 300 faculty across SMU's six schools are ready to engage and imbue you with their expert domain knowledge. Complementing the classroom experience are our administrators and Career Services team who are fully committed to assisting you throughout your MBA Programme.
The flexibility of the SMU MBA gives you the option to complete your MBA journey in a 12-month duration for the Full-time Programme or an 18-month duration for the Part-time Programme. This allows you to adjust the Programme to fit your work schedules as a busy professional.
In addition to our active engagement of the business community as recruiters, board members, donors, research partners and guest lecturers, we have also established linkages with more than 2,000 companies, providing an unparalleled connection to the business communities of Singapore and Asia.
"The SMU MBA provides a unique opportunity to develop and extract your full potential in the knowledge, as well as, the practice of business and management. This is achieved via a purposefully planned curriculum comprising experiential learning methods, a strong faculty panel with extensive teaching and industry track records, overseas exchanges and business study missions, Asian cases written by SMU faculty and project-based courses."
