The MBA Taster Evening is normally held in the Summer and Postgraduate Open Evenings are also held on a regular basis throughout the year.
Additionally, you can also visit the school on the annual university Open Day or attend one of our subject days or Applicants Days. In 2009, the School had two Applicants Days (in February and March) and hosted the ‘S’ Factor: Schools Sustainability Competition which formed part of the ESRC Festival of Social Science. The competition's aim was to enhance the understanding of sustainability and sustainable practice amongst senior pupils.

Student Prizes and Awards
Each year awards are made to ABS students by the business community to demonstrate their support for our courses. A range of prizes are given to students who have shown academic excellence or performed exceptionally in their studies. The School is proud of the consistently high level of achievements shown by our students and graduates, recognised by these Prizes and Awards.
Aberdeen Business School also was the principal sponsor of the Northern Star Business Awards. Organised by the Chamber of Commerce, the award ceremony has established itself as a leading business event in Aberdeen City and Shire. The Northern Star Business Awards Dinner took place at the Aberdeen Exhibition and Conference Centre.
Professor Rita Marcella, Dean of the Aberdeen Business School said, "I am delighted that the School had the opportunity to sponsor the Northern Star Business Awards as they recognise entrepreneurship and dynamic management which are qualities we support and nurture in our students."
