Award details
Value
Partial awards up to a maximum of £30,000, covering a portion of the course fees.

There is no fixed number of awards available. The number of awardees in each intake of the programme will depend on the number of applicants and the amount awarded to each successful recipient.
Selection criteria
Academic excellence (candidates must be educated to degree level)
How your background will enhance the diversity of the cohort
How the programme will benefit your sector/region in the long-term
Preference will be given to candidates that can effectively demonstrate how they will enhance the learning experience of the cohort through the diverse experience they have accumulated to date. This could include experience in working across multiple sectors and regions especially emerging markets.
Preference will also be given to candidates from emerging markets or non-traditional backgrounds, such as (but not exclusively) voluntary charitable organisations, international organisations and military backgrounds.
How to apply
Upload a supporting statement (200–400 words) in the Funding section of the Executive MBA programme application, answering this question:
How will your background enhance the diversity of the Executive MBA cohort, and how will the programme benefit your sector/region in the long-term?

Director’s Awards will be awarded after each of the four admissions deadlines listed below up until all of the available funding has been allocated. We cannot guarantee the availability of these awards in our later application stages, so early application is recommended.
