Sheffield Business School were honoured to be visited by our strategic partner from Botswana Accountancy College; Gaborone and Francistown. The senior delegation of Serty Leburu (Executive Director), Dr Byron Brown (Dean of Business and Leisure), Dr G. Male (Deputy Executive Director), Mr A. Mbewe (Portfolio manager – business) and Mrs M Mokgosi (Head of Marketing communications) met with senior faculty staff, toured the campus, dined with the Vice Chancellor and presented two papers at the partnership conference.

The visit and hosting by SBS underpinned the richness of the collaborative partnership as the success of the first delivery of the BA International Banking and Finance in 2015/16 and going forward three top-ups, MBA and Masters is planned for 2016/17. The relationship continues to grow with a wider collaborative engagement in research, staff and student exchanges and a joint conference planned for 2017 in Gaborone. The first SHU/BAC students are due to graduate next year which will be testament to the hard work and dedication of both institutions.
