What our students have to say:

I completed the Executive MBA programme at NUI Galway in 2006 and I am glad to say that I found it a truly positive experience. The overall organisation of the programme, the quality of the lecturers and the stimulating discussions that took place among the group put the foundations in place that enabled me to take my career to the next level. Almost four years on, I can say without hesitation that I would not be where I am today if I did not complete this programme.

My memory of studying at NUI Galway is a very positive one not just for the academic learning but also the group and peer-based learning. The MBA has helped me grow professionally and personally and gave me the full set of skills required to make my business what it is today.

The Executive MBA programme at NUI, Galway has broadened my perspective on business philosophy and my knowledge of business principles and I have learned how these can be applied effectively in a practical context.  The programme is delivered by a staff of competent lecturers, who have significant research and professional experience, and students with diverse backgrounds learn and develop quickly.  The lecturers recognise that the knowledge and experience of the students is a vast source of learning and the programme is structured to incorporate this into the teaching, through an interactive discussion process which is always interesting and enjoyable.

The Executive MBA at NUI Galway was extremely beneficial to me.  Having access to very high calibre lecturers in the School of Business and Economics enabled me to consider macro economic issues more in-depthly and think outside the box more broadly.
