Our Full-time MBA students recently visited Hitachi, Ltd. -Global (Newton Aycliffe) to get an insider’s perspective!
They explored the supply chains, project management and logistics required to ensure that the trains get from shell products delivered by lorry to the factory, to fully equipped trains across the length and breadth of the UK.
Dr Joanna Berry said: "As one of our students commented, it was great to see a top class, international-scale manufacturing supply chain... brought to life in such an immediate and meaningful way; we hope to return to Hitachi again next year."

Brilliant to have Julian Richer, Founder and Managing Director of Richer Sounds, here a couple of weeks ago!
We had lots of students, staff and guests (including students from Emmanuel College - pictured with Julian) come to hear Julian speak about topics such as how Richer Sounds has been able to withstand competition from Amazon and the decline in the traditional retail model.

Happy New Year from everyone at the Business School!

Join us here in Durham for our MBA Open Event on Saturday 16 February!
Daryl Gaddi, Online MBA student, said: "Going to an open day helps make it real. Walk the halls and see the facilities you will be in during residentials (or every day if full time). Meet the staff that will be helping you get the most out of the programme, whichever you choose. Learn from current students who can tell you what it was like for them - that there is nothing to be wary of, that it could just ...be one of the best decisions you'll make."
