SLTC Research University Unveils In-House MBA Programme, Tailor Made for Career – Driven Professionals
View(s):SLTC Research University recently marked a major significant milestone in its postgraduate offerings with the introduction of its bespoke MBA programme, designed to empower Sri Lankan professionals seeking to elevate their knowledge and skills for career advancement. Endorsed by the University Grants Commission (UGC) and the Ministry of Education, the SLTC MBA programme is one of the most flexible programmes available in Sri Lanka, offering three distinct pathways for students to complete their studies, including coursework, project-based learning, or research-based study.
The inauguration of this groundbreaking MBA programme was celebrated during an official ceremony held at SLTC Research University’s Colombo campus, situated at Trace Expert City in Colombo 01. The event was graced by Dr. Ranil Sugathadasa as the Chief Guest and the Vice Chancellor/CEO of SLTC, Senior Professor Veranja Karunaratne, Additional Secretary – Ministry of Education (Non – State Higher Education) Ms Chandima Janaki, SLTC Council Governing Members, Senior Prof Denzil Rosa and Mr. Mangala Yapa and SLTC Registrar Ms Kosambika Devendra were also present at the event.
SLTC Research University’s MBA is set apart from the plethora of programmes available due to multiple reasons. The MBA being a programme directly offered by the University, the Faculty of Postgraduate Studies at SLTC Research University has meticulously crafted the two-year programme to cater to the modern MBA student’s practical needs.
Professor Veranja Karunarathne, Vice Chancellor/CEO of SLTC Research University, highlighted the motivation behind this initiative: “An observation of Sri Lanka’s higher education landscape reveals a plethora of MBA programmes from both local and foreign universities, driven by the growing demand among aspiring professionals. However, we recognised that there is a scarcity of MBA programmes genuinely dedicated to equipping students with contemporary and practical knowledge, thereby producing exceptionally capable professionals. The SLTC MBA programme is meticulously designed to bridge this gap and empower professionals to achieve exceptional career growth.”
Delivered by a distinguished faculty with proven expertise in academia and the corporate world, the SLTC MBA programme seamlessly combines essential knowledge and skills with critical networking capabilities, providing the ideal path for climbing the corporate ladder.
