Cass Business School EMBA Programme
Cass Business School part of The City University, London, one of the world's leading business schools, has launched its Executive MBA (EMBA) programme offering three alternative specialisations: Islamic Finance, Energy and General Management and Finance.
The programme was officially launched by associate dean at Cass Business School Dr Hassan Hakimian and the Right Honourable the Lord Mayor Alderman John Stuttard, City of London, who is also Chancellor of The City University, in presence of Dr Omar bin Sulaiman, Governor, Dubai International Finaance Centre (DIFC).
Launched in association with DIFC, the EMBA will be the world's first MBA programme offering specialist streams in Islamic Finance and Energy.
The new programme will be taught over 24 months and will involve the same content as Cass's London-based Executive MBA, one of the highest ranked EMBAs in the world by the Financial Times. The first intake of students is planned for September 2007.
'The boom witnessed in the region has opened the doors to hundreds of thousands of jobs, and there is a dearth of qualified professionals in the financial sector. As reforms accelerate further within the Islamic finance sector, there will be a requirement for talents at a level and scale never seen before,' said Dr Omar bin Sulaiman.
Classes will be delivered by Cass academics who will visit Dubai to deliver classes over a long weekend once a month. The School's online learning platform, CassLearn, which has been instrumental in the success of the delivery of the China Executive MBA in Shanghai, will be used for online tutorials, group discussion and research, an official spokesman added.
