Are you looking to advance your career and obtain a Masters degree, but struggling to balance work and study? Part-time studies may be the solution you're looking for. With the rise of hybrid learning and weekend seminars, obtaining an MBA or Masters degree while working full-time is now more achievable than ever before.

At ECBM, we understand the demands of a busy professional lifestyle, which is why we offer a range of part-time Masters programmes, including MBAs and MScs, that are designed to fit around your schedule.

Flexibility is key

One of the biggest benefits of part-time studies is the flexibility it offers. With hybrid learning, you can access course materials and complete assignments online, giving you the freedom to study at your own pace and in your own time. Weekend seminars in London and Germany, on the other hand, provide an immersive and interactive learning experience, allowing you to network with your peers and learn from experienced faculty in a supportive environment.

Theoretical knowledge and practical application

Additionally, part-time studies allow you to immediately apply what you learn in the classroom to your work, helping you to build your professional skills and advance your career. As you progress through your programme, you will develop a comprehensive understanding of your chosen field and be equipped with the knowledge and skills necessary to take your career to the next level.

At ECBM, we are dedicated to helping our students achieve their career and academic goals, which is why we offer a supportive and inclusive environment for part-time students. Our programmes are designed to challenge and inspire you, while also providing the flexibility you need to succeed.

Making it work

In conclusion, if you're a busy professional looking to advance your career and obtain a Masters degree, consider the benefits of part-time studies. With hybrid learning and weekend seminars, it's now more achievable than ever before. So why not take the first step and enquire about our part-time Masters programmes today?

Welcome to ECBM in the heart of London

A typical day in London

Today is a typical London day: white clouds float in a blue sky, over red buses and black taxis. The roads are humming with cars and lorries, all going somewhere, and doing something for someone. The pavements are filled with a rich diversity of people: hairstyles and dress sense sometimes challenge the imagination, but lift the soul as London ‘smiles’ on its open-minded diversification. Yes, London is open for business!

Shoreditch has pulled itself up in a transformation which has been the result of courageous and far-sighted people who could see the potential of bringing in better-class restaurants, bars and bistros, and who could see the appeal of living so near to the City.

Our students in London

Some of our teaching weekends take place in our college in the heart of London. The bustling city around us, the classrooms high up with wonderful views, and the sounds of students in the building - that is our favourite way to go through the week! 

And here in Shoreditch is ECBM. Solidly the building stands in Great Eastern Street, as it has for many years, and watches over the transformation of the area, the attraction of the young and fashionable, the City people, the artists, and the evolution of Shoreditch into a brighter vibrant place. Inside the building, there is continuity, as more transformation and evolution take place, in the lives of our students, who will focus and apply themselves, open their minds, learn and understand, and rise to even brighter careers.

As an ECBM academic, sharing the transformations, and being part of the evolution of our students, I would not wish to be anywhere else. Come and join us in the heart of London!
