Programme highlights

LondonLab

The capacity to translate theory into practice to solve problems is a core skill in business, and one that is highly in demand.

LondonLAB allows you to apply learnings from the programme to the working business world.

Expand your London network, explore new sectors and make a tangible impact on a client organisation in a 6-week live project.

Skills programme

An enhanced skills portfolio not only helps embed your learning but also equips you to hit the ground running in your next position.

Skills development is grouped into three strategic areas that map closely to business needs - interpersonal, numerical and digital literacy – and cover a broad diversity of capabilities, from online branding and professional presentation to modelling, excel and programming.

Global Immersion Field Trips (GIFTs)

Go beyond the familiar. Faculty-led field trips - to incredible locations such as Medellin and Kathmandu - are your chance to approach problems and apply learning in a different cultural and business context.

Work directly with communities and deliver concrete impact, gain hands-on experience and broaden your perspective. Explore the broader themes of social impact, entrepreneurship and sustainability.
