Lancashire MBA from Kinshasa, Congo, Democratic Republic of the
Build your next chapter without leaving Kinshasa. The Lancashire MBA, offered online in an exclusive partnership between the University of Lancashire and Robert Kennedy College, gives you the flexibility to pursue a British degree while continuing to live and work in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Its business and management theory can be applied across international contexts, helping you think more broadly about the opportunities ahead.
Earn an internationally recognised British degree
A British MBA can bring an internationally recognised qualification to your professional profile. Study with the University of Lancashire and Robert Kennedy College while remaining connected to your career and community in Kinshasa.
Whether your ambitions lead you to a larger role at home or opportunities abroad, a British degree can help you communicate your commitment to advanced business study across borders.
Complete your MBA 100% online in as little as one year
The programme can be completed entirely online in as little as one year. There is no need to relocate or put your life in Kinshasa on hold to work towards your degree.
This format lets you pursue an ambitious academic goal alongside your existing responsibilities. Your own completion time will depend on how you progress through the programme.
Study without being online at set times
Your studies do not require you to be online at specific times and dates. That freedom can make it easier to fit learning around work, family commitments and a changing schedule.
Instead of arranging your day around live attendance, you can engage with the material when you are ready to focus. The result is a more adaptable way to make steady progress towards your MBA.
Take your learning wherever you go
Study from Kinshasa, elsewhere in the Democratic Republic of the Congo or while travelling internationally. Your learning can move with you, so a change of location does not have to interrupt your plans.
Through the mobile app, you can download study materials and watch lectures offline. It is a practical option for making use of travel time or studying when an internet connection is unavailable.
Show what you know through open-book assessments
Rather than classical question-and-answer exams, the programme uses open-book assessments. You can draw on learning materials as you develop and present your responses.
This approach offers an opportunity to demonstrate how you interpret ideas, assess information and apply business theory—skills that can remain valuable well beyond graduation.
Learn from faculty with outstanding academic backgrounds
Programme tutors and faculty include graduates of world-renowned institutions such as Oxford, Harvard, EPFL, the University of Basel and Washington University in St. Louis.
Learning with experienced academics can broaden the perspectives you bring to complex management questions and encourage you to examine familiar challenges in new ways.
Join a global learning community
With students from more than 130 countries, the programme offers opportunities to encounter viewpoints shaped by different markets, industries and careers.
Alumni work for international organisations and companies including the United Nations, Google, the ICRC, The World Bank, Microsoft, Intel, Samsung, Tencent, Siemens and Sony. Their varied paths illustrate the breadth of the programme’s global community.
Spread the cost with interest-free instalments
Programme fees can be paid in up to 18 monthly interest-free instalments, giving you a way to spread payments over time.
That payment structure can help you plan your MBA alongside your other commitments while you work towards a long-term professional goal.
Bring a wider perspective to Kinshasa’s opportunities
Kinshasa connects organisations involved in mining, mineral supply chains and the services that support them. For graduates working in these areas, MBA theory may provide useful ways to consider operations, investment decisions and partnerships across international markets.
The city is also a major centre for banking, telecommunications and growing digital services. Graduates in these sectors may find that a broader grounding in management helps them evaluate changing customer needs, organisational growth and new business opportunities.
Infrastructure, energy and logistics remain important to businesses serving Kinshasa and the wider country. An MBA can give graduates additional perspectives for discussing strategy and coordinating work across teams, organisations and borders—while building on their own knowledge of the places where they work.
