SALARY AND CAREER BENEFITS

Studying for an MBA will mean a large personal and financial investment, so you need to choose the right programme for you.

The rewards for graduates from leading MBA programmes are good in both the short and longer term. Findings from the Association's latest Salary and Career Survey show that salaries for graduates from accredited programmes have risen consistently over the past decade. Despite the fact that earnings generally increase upon graduation, career advancement is still one of the main reasons that people choose to study for an MBA.

Our most recent survey of our members found that:

  • The average MBA salary was £66,500
  • 70% were either board directors or senior managers
  • 1 in 4 expected to run their own business in the future
  • MBAs are employed mainly in general management, marketing, corporate strategy and IT
  • Around 25% of graduates are female.

MBA graduates are upwardly mobile. Many graduates remain with their current employer if they are sponsored; others will soon move on. Greater confidence in your own abilities leads to higher productivity at work. The MBA is about long term development and professionalism as opposed to short-term gain.
