As the cornerstone postgraduate programme of SMU, the SMU MBA is built on new ideas and research of a distinguished corps of senior academics selected from among over 200 faculty from across SMU's six schools. It will also draw on real-life, real-time experience of industry professionals who are business world veterans to combine academic vigour with hands-on business savvy. Participants will benefit from the broad-based and interactive approach of the established SMU brand of pedagogy where business education is closely interwoven with studies in law, economics, accounting, finance, social sciences and information systems.
