Slightly belated weekly round up blog

I had meant to post these links last week but I was so busy with the group sessions for MGT3201 that time got away from me. Really good to be out and about helping so many students with their projects.

Last week had lots of stories about the MBA experience coinciding with the announcement of the International Global ranking. One story highlights that fact that the pay of Top MBA graduates has doubled despite the global recession, while another discusses greater flexibility in modes of study for the MBA. More and more students are opting for parttime study, flexible executive courses or or targeted courses like the MBAs in shipping that we offer here at Middlesex. On a lighter note, The FT seems to be surveying MBA fashion - are you all dressing for success here at Middlesex or do you take a more casual approach?

The smartphone/tablet patents war rages on while Apple suffers from disappointing iPhone sales. In interesting news for MGT3201 students, Sony's credit rating has been cut to junk by Moody's as they feel Sony's profitability is still 'weak and vulnerable'.
