Newly Established Johannesburg Business School (Jbs)

Loading player...
The newly established Johannesburg Business School (JBS), at the University of Johannesburg, launched its inaugural MBA on 22 January 2020. With a subtle departure from conventional General Management studies, the JBS MBA focuses on growing and scaling businesses in the South African and African context. It has a strong practical orientation, with local and international faculty recognised for their excellence in teaching, but who have also played an active role in industry.
The interest in a new approach to business education and a differentiated MBA is evident in the sheer size of the first intake of the JBS MBA. With a total cohort of over 80 students, the JBS MBA has two streams: the Weekender and an innovative Early Bird class starting at 06h30am during the week.
