Global Business PgDip

About the course

The Oxford Postgraduate Diploma (PGDip) in Global Business is a qualification designed to help you undertake the senior international responsibilities which drive organisational success. This part-time programme will enhance your understanding of the issues involved in conducting business in a global landscape whilst allowing you to fulfil your existing work commitments.

This is an intellectually rich programme taught in modules of four days each (Wednesday to Saturday) and completed in one year, allowing you to study alongside employment and complete the qualification in one year.

The programme is designed to extend knowledge and broaden and deepen your skill base, with a clear focus on practical application. The diploma will provide the knowledge and skills you need to reach the highest level of your career, whether you are managing in a commercial or public sector context. It has a focus on global strategy, risk and reputation, corporate diplomacy and international business challenges. Each module (see further details) consists of approximately 24 hours of supported study. Students are advised that approximately 6-8 hours of self-directed study per week outside of the modules is required.

Assessment

The Diploma in Global Business adopts an assessment regime that requires you to take four courses and satisfy the examiners in the assessment associated with each core course. Assessment will be a combination of written examinations and individual assignments.
