Ged Fitzgerald

Chief Executive, Liverpool Council

“I chose Salford for my MBA for several reasons - it was a new and progressive course with a challenging blend of input, integration and application. It also enabled me to learn a lot about excellent private sector organisational experience and thinking and to apply it to the public sector. It was a fundamental asset in shaping my career and continues to help me in leading a major, complex organisation.”

Industry Links

The Salford MBA’s links with industry take the form of guest lectures, real case studies and business trips. These take on a global aspect during the overseas trip; last year students visited Rouen, in Northern France.

Recent business trips – normally involving tours of factories and other facilities, as well as discussions with company experts and managers – have included:

• Adidas
• Halewood – TATA’s Merseyside factory producing Jaguar and Land Rover
  
• Pilkington Glass
