“The UCT GSB MBA isn't just a degree, it's a catalyst for both personal and professional transformation. Within the first three weeks, I had my mind blown, my worldview challenged and built lifelong connections. The diverse network and exceptional support team create an almost curated learning experience for working professionals.
