The course teaches students comprehensive and specialised subjects in data science; it develops sophisticated skills in statistics, mathematical modelling, and the ability to code in support of such analyses. It further grounds students in the disciplinary history and methodology of data science, preparing them for either further study or to work as a practitioner in the field. The program prominently features a major capstone project, requiring students to identify a real-world problem that would benefit from a data-driven approach; to collect and prepare the data to address the problem; and to build visualisations in support of their arguments. The combination of rigorous mathematical training with practical approaches gives learners the ability to autonomously further develop their skills after graduation, turning them into lifelong learners of data science methods.

The course teaches students comprehensive and specialised subjects in business administration; it develops skills in critical thinking and strategic planning for changing and fast-paced environments, including financial and operational analysis; and it develops competences in leadership, including autonomous decision-making, and communication with employees, stakeholders, and other members of a business.

The course helps students develop an appreciation for programming as a problem-solving tool. It teaches students how to think algorithmically and solve problems efficiently, and serves as the foundation for further computer science studies.

Using a project-based approach, students will learn to manipulate variables, expressions, and statements in Python, and understand functions, loops, and iterations. Students will then dive deep into data structures such as strings, files, lists, dictionaries, tuples, etc. to write complex programs. Over the course of the term, students will learn and apply basic data structures and algorithmic thinking. Finally, the course will explore design and implementation of web apps in Python using the Flask framework.

Throughout the course, students will be exposed to abstraction and will learn a systematic way of constructing solutions to problems. They will work on team projects to practice pair programming, code reviews, and other collaboration methods common to industry. The course culminates in a final group project and presentation during which students demonstrate and reflect on their learning.

12-month MBA offered to a global Cohort of dynamic arts professionals.



The Global Leaders Program equips arts entrepreneurs to succeed in today’s complex world through its practical problem-based frameworks, tools, experiences, and methodologies curated by a unique blend of world-class academic institutions, faculty, practitioners, mentors, and coaches. The MBA journey empowers participants to effectively navigate the evolving landscape of the cultural sector with its unique balance of foundational coursework, tailored substreams, immersive field assignments, applied learnings, case studies, reflective labs, and growth-oriented retreats to foster practical skills and actionable insights. 



The GLP’s MBA curriculum is tailored to the needs of arts professionals in multi-dimensional roles seeking social science-based, creative, entrepreneurial, and operational tools for enhanced impact and leadership. Cohort Members range from creative industry managers, entrepreneurs, and executives to concert presenters, producers, education leaders, teaching artists, and performers. The MBA’s practical problem-based methodology reflects the busy lives of arts professionals. Customizable substreams and individually tailored Field Assignments immersed within a diverse network of global partner organizations foster the realization of targeted professional goals.



Learning objectives for Cohort Members include cultivation of the following capacities

• Apply methods for creative problem solving and idea generation to respond to complex situations through inventive thinking.
• Leverage knowledge of social innovation, cultural agency, strategic allocation, and operational management to implement and lead a sustainable creative enterprise.
• Develop and execute well-honed action plans for arts-based, market-oriented interventions & solutions to critical social, economic, and environmental challenges.
• Apply business frameworks and models to create and deliver value for diverse stakeholders including underserved and underrepresented communities.

The course teaches students comprehensive and specialised subjects in business administration; it develops skills in critical thinking and strategic planning for changing and fast-paced environments, including financial and operational analysis; and it develops competences in leadership, including autonomous decision-making, and communication with employees, stakeholders, and other members of a business.



The MBA combines asynchronous components (lecture videos, readings, and written assignments) and synchronous tutorial meetings attended by students and an instructor or faculty member during a video call.

Asynchronous components support the schedule of students from diverse work-life situations, and synchronous meetings provide accountability and motivation for students.



The course is composed of multiple short foundation modules, extended specialist modules, and a capstone project – the Digital Action Programme for Business Administration.



Each module consists of formative units and cumulative units devoted to summative examination. Each unit requires about 20 hours to complete (see individual modules for details).



As is typical for Oxbridge tutorial teaching, the student will compose one assignment (such as a report, 1,000 word essay, financial model, or presentation) per unit, which is the topic of tutorial discussion. A full-time student completes two units per week with an assignment submitted for each unit; this pattern continues for each formative unit in the module.

Summative examination units allows an appropriate amount of time for the student to review and revise his or her prior work and deepen their synthetic grasp of the materials in preparation for cumulative examination or project.



The degree has a capstone project consisting of the Digital Action Programme, in which students are grouped into cohorts and must work together on a real business problem. Over the course of the capstone, students use multidisciplinary approaches to perform critical analyses of real business issues in situations of uncertainty and incomplete information and develop an actionable solution, which is presented and assessed at the end of the capstone.



Learning Outcomes

• Communicate with clarity to specialist and non-specialist audiences through written and oral reports, digests, market analyses, strategic options, and operational recommendations

• articulate (in writing and orally) major problems and proposed solutions that arise in the context business administration

• communicate with clarity complex issues pertaining to business administration

• Identify areas of professional self-development, and undertake self- directed study to gain specialised knowledge in needed areas

• Employ best scholarly practises of original research in order to enhance business practices; drawing upon diverse evidence and scholarly literature, synthesise evidence into a single piece of written or oral communication within a defined period of time
