MBA in UK universities with professional placements

While every theoretical education comes with its own benefits, internships and placements offer the kind of work experience that you are actually looking for after completion of your course.

The UK attracts a large population of international students out of which, 18% are looking for higher education. When you are studying, you do have the freedom to perform some casual work, depending upon your country of origin and your visa permissions. But if you wish to improve your chances of gaining experience, then obtain admission into one of these universities that combine professional placements along with the MBA.

Recognised across major global league tables, the UK offers some of the best MBA courses in the world. Several business schools in the UK have performed extremely well even in the QS Global MBA Rankings 2018.
