Programme Overview
About this Programme
This is the generalist's MSc: five core management courses, then ten specialisation courses that run across the full management map, from operations and finance to people and markets, taught with the research discipline a Master of Science implies. It suits professionals moving toward general management, consultants who need the breadth to roam across functions, and graduates deciding that breadth is their advantage.
The degree runs asynchronously on the e-Campus across twelve months. Fifteen courses of four ECTS each, no residency, no campus attendance, and the salary keeps arriving through all of it, which matters more than it sounds.
Rushford Business School, Switzerland, awards the degree. What you generalize with it afterwards is the interesting part.

Why GCC Students Choose This Programme
Diversification keeps printing generalist roles
The UAE's non-oil sector now contributes over 74% of GDP, and every new industry it creates needs managers who understand the whole business.
Scaling companies hire breadth
Fast-growing Gulf firms need people who can move between operations, finance, and people functions. That mobility is the degree's design.
The skills gap favours credentialed candidates
Across the Gulf, employers keep reporting shortages of qualified candidates, and a completed MSc is the simplest proof in the room.
Twelve months suits promotion windows
Appraisal cycles and posting windows do not wait for two-year degrees. One year, asynchronous, keeps you in time.
The MSc leaves doors open
Research methodology inside the degree keeps the route to a DBA or PhD open later, if general management turns into something more specific.
Honest take
breadth trades against depth. If you already know the single function you want to own, a specialized MSc will serve that target faster, and an advisor will happily say so. This degree is for the people who run the whole building.
