Evolve MBA Scholarships

UEA are pleased to announce a small number of Evolve MBA Scholarships for the full-time and executive part-time MBA programmes starting at Norwich Business School in January 2012. These scholarships for 50% fees are only available to members of Evolve. There are two scholarships available for the full-time programme and three available for the part-time programme.

MBA scholarships are generally awarded on a merit basis taking into account background and abilities which are expected to be above and beyond the normal admissions criteria. You can see these criteria on the NBS website. A particularly important requirement is that you have, or have recently had, three or more years responsible work experience and can show ambition and drive.

To apply for an Evolve MBA scholarship, please complete a course application from the website or by emailing Jane English at mbateam@uea.ac.uk. You will also need to include a 1,000 word statement on how your experience, ideas and achievements will benefit other members of a MBA cohort. When accepted for a place on the course your scholarship application will be considered.

This is an exciting opportunity to up-skill in a difficult economic climate. If you want to talk more about this please feel free to contact MBA Programme Director Terry Kendrick on 01603 591540 or t.kendrick@uea.ac.uk. Further details of the MBA programmes can be found at http://business.uea.ac.uk/mba-programmes

There is some urgency to this as Evolve scholarship applications must be fully processed by Friday 28th October. Those offered scholarships will be informed by mid November. Note that these scholarships will not be advertised anywhere else other than through this email and are only available to those on the Evolve mailing list. This is an unusual opportunity as part of our drive to support the development of the local economy.
