The Master's in International Business Management builds on a knowledge of basic concepts, theories and applied business administration to develop a comprehensive understanding of international management. This takes into account both strategic and operative aspects – and focuses on a project-based and applied approach.
Students of this postgraduate programme can expect to acquire the expertise and skills needed to work in companies or organisations active in an international environment, or to take up a management position as a future executive.
By including practice-based projects, students develop skills which they can apply creatively to international issues with the objective of solution-finding. Students' problem-solving skills are systematically developed by a modern mix of methodological approaches to teaching and learning. Guest speakers acknowledged in their field provide a real-world perspective to supplement the course content.
The programme encourages students to work cooperatively as a means of engaging with the course materials in an international context. The international focus is clearly reflected in the use of English as the language of instruction, in the international composition of the student intake, and in the study visit to a partner university in London.
Regular exchanges with fellow students and faculty support scholarly and cultural learning. Apart from the focus on applied tasks, students also learn the requisite scholarly methodology and, in this way, are trained in systematic and proper scholarly practices.
Through a system of specialisations and elective courses, the subjects taught go beyond the classic business areas to deal with current topics and issues relevant to current global challenges.
Students can choose their specialisation in one of the following:
The programme is structured around 12 modules, each ending with an exam. The programme provides fundamental cross-sector and cross-functional skills and knowledge in international management. These facilitate an analytical problem-solving expertise allowing for cultural factors, and which can also support personal and career development. Creative solution-finding in a team as part of the practice-based projects encourages thinking outside the box and, in this way, promotes successful project management.
