Contingent on career tracks, and subject to additional fees, MFA students may extend their learning to complete three additional electives courses at LBS or with one of our exchange partner schools to broaden their global exposure and understanding. International exchanges are available with other world-class business schools in Europe, North America and Asia.
Enrolling in the 4th term expands students’ eligibility to apply for more internship opportunities. MFAs may apply for summer internships commencing at the end of their core course work with companies which recruit on a strict penultimate year policy.
Make London your classroom. Get hands-on through company visits and real-life case studies.
Gain new skills in three key strategic areas – interpersonal, numerical and digital literacy.
Our Global Experience courses challenge you to apply your learning in new and unfamiliar contexts, and to have responsible real-world impact. For one intensive, immersive week, you will expand your global mindset and network. Alongside your peers in Graduate Masters, MBA and Leadership programmes, travel to destinations such as Austin, Cape Town, Medellin and Paris.
Each Global Experience is led by expert faculty and explores a topical theme, offering an in-depth view of a country's business culture.
