About The Programme
By taking a degree in Business Management, you will develop a broad understanding of business organisations. You will learn how businesses develop strategies, make decisions, organise their internal resources, and manage risk and uncertainty.
Business and marketing case studies form an integral part of many of the modules, especially during the later stages of your course programme. In a case study, information is presented about a firm’s products, markets, financial structure, human resources and other factors that may influence its success. During your course, you will discuss and analyse strategies and actions that the firm should take in the future.
Your degree in Business Management will provide insights and expertise in specific business functions such as marketing, human resource management, accounting and finance. You will study specialised topics such as entrepreneurship and international business. You will also develop an awareness of the wider environment in which businesses operate, by studying subjects such as business economics and business law.

Hear from our Students / Graduates
At age 30, after working for 7 years as a quality/regulatory analyst, I decided to further my education by pursuing an MBA in the field of Banking & Finance from MDIS, in collaboration with Bangor University. At MDIS, I got a chance to learn from some extremely knowledgeable lecturers who are highly experienced in their respectively fields. I truly believe that hard work and a positive attitude make dreams come true as they did for me, when I bagged the Gold Award for being the Top Student of the Year.
As an international student, MDIS proved to be the right choice for me as it provided the platform for me to learn and understand the International Financial Markets. It gives me immense pleasure to announce that I am currently working as a Financial Services Consultant at AIA Singapore, which was a result of the knowledge and exposure I gained from studying at MDIS.
I highly recommend MDIS to those who desire to learn and succeed in their careers, provided that they stay committed and passionate towards achieving their professional dreams.
