From the foothills of Table Mountain to the shores of the Atlantic, your next career chapter can begin right where you are. The MSc Global Management, delivered online in exclusive partnership between the University of Salford and Robert Kennedy College, opens a world of opportunity without asking you to leave Cape Town, South Africa.

Designed for ambitious professionals who want to think bigger, lead confidently, and create impact across borders, this programme blends rigorous management theory with practical, globally applicable insight. You gain the flexibility to study on your schedule, the credibility of a British master’s degree, and the momentum to accelerate your career—while staying connected to the life and work you love in Cape Town.

Earn a British Degree Recognised Worldwide

Graduating with a British master’s degree signals academic excellence and professional readiness across continents. This programme awards a respected UK qualification that equips you with the strategic mindset, analytical tools, and leadership capabilities that international employers value.

Wherever your ambitions point—multinational corporations, high-growth ventures, NGOs, or your own enterprise—you can carry a credential that travels as well as you do, opening doors in global markets and reinforcing your credibility from the first conversation.

Graduate in as Little as 1 Year — 100% Online

Time is your most valuable asset. This programme is structured for momentum, enabling determined learners to complete their master’s in as little as one year, entirely online. That means you can move from aspiration to achievement faster, without pausing your career or relocating.

Clear module pathways, focused learning outcomes, and practical assessments help you build knowledge efficiently. You learn, apply, and progress at pace—turning new understanding into immediate professional value.

No Required Online Presence at Specific Times

Your life does not run on a fixed lecture timetable—and your degree shouldn’t either. There is no requirement to be online at specific times and dates. You engage with materials, discussions, and assignments when it works for you.

Whether your most productive hours are early morning in Sea Point or late evening in Woodstock, you can design a study rhythm that fits your workflow, family commitments, and personal goals.

Study Anywhere—Even Offline—With Our Mobile App

From a cafe in the CBD to a flight out of Cape Town International, your classroom is wherever you are. Our mobile app lets you download study materials and watch lectures offline, so you can learn on the move, on your commute, or while traveling.

This freedom keeps your momentum strong. When connectivity is limited or you’re between meetings, you can still read, reflect, and progress—turning downtime into advancement.

Open-Book Assessments That Reflect the Real World

Success in management isn’t about memorising facts—it’s about finding, evaluating, and applying knowledge to make smart decisions. That’s why this programme uses open-book assessments rather than classical question/answer exams.

You’ll synthesise concepts, critique options, and propose solutions—just as you would on the job. The result is a more authentic evaluation of your ability to think, analyse, and lead under real-world conditions.

Learn From Faculty With World-Class Pedigrees

Guidance matters. Your tutors and faculty include graduates of world-renowned institutions such as Oxford, Harvard, EPFL, the University of Basel, and Washington University in St. Louis. They bring academic depth and practical insight from diverse industries and geographies.

Expect mentorship that stretches your thinking, feedback that sharpens your work, and teaching that bridges theory with action—so you can move from understanding to impact with confidence.

Join a Diverse Community With Global Reach

Global management demands global perspective. You will learn alongside peers from over 130 countries, exchanging insights, case experiences, and cultural viewpoints that enrich your thinking and strengthen your network.

Our alumni work for international organisations like DHL, Dell, CK-HUTCHISON, ICBC Bank, HSBC, Santander, Westpac, Disney, Orange, Luis Vuiton, United Nations, Google, ICRC, The World Bank, Microsoft, Intel, Samsung, Tencent, Siemens, Sony.

Manageable Costs With Flexible, Interest-Free Instalments

Investing in your future should be clear and manageable. Programme fees can be paid in up to 18 monthly interest-free instalments, helping you plan with confidence while you study.

This approach lets you distribute costs across your learning journey, aligning payments with your monthly budget and reducing financial friction as you advance your career.

From Cape Town to the World: Career Impact Where You Live

Technology and innovation: Cape Town’s thriving tech ecosystem—often called the Silicon Cape—spans fintech, e-commerce, health tech, and agritech. The MSc Global Management equips you to lead cross-functional teams, scale products internationally, structure partnerships, and navigate funding and governance as ventures grow beyond South Africa. You’ll be prepared to translate strategy into execution across markets, cultures, and regulatory environments.

Trade, logistics, and supply chains: With the Port of Cape Town linking Africa to global trade corridors, organisations here depend on managers who understand international operations, supplier networks, and risk. This programme strengthens your ability to optimise end-to-end value chains, manage cross-border relationships, and build resilience—skills that are prized by shipping companies, logistics providers, manufacturers, and import/export firms.

Green economy and sustainable growth: The Western Cape’s leadership in renewables, circular economy initiatives, and sustainable tourism creates demand for managers who can align profitability with purpose. You’ll learn how to embed sustainability into strategy, measure impact, and communicate value to stakeholders—preparing you to contribute meaningfully in energy projects, ESG-focused roles, and purpose-driven enterprises across the region and beyond.
