Course structure & majors
The first two semesters of your studies will be your basis semesters: They are made up of six General Management and four basic modules. In this phase we put a special focus on the management of international enterprises as well as the development of business models and plans. The basic modules are designed to get you up to speed on business administration questions if you do do not have a degree in this field already.
In the third semester of the programme, the focus semester, you will work on your Capstone Project. This project consists of a business game in which you take on a corporate position, take decisions accordingly and then analyse their impact. This is followed by a phase in which you will work on a practice project with a real business partner – this could be your former or current employer. You will complete the Capstone Project with a final report.
