“Our program’s competitive advantage is that we are truly international; in our global approach to the curriculum, our faculty and student profiles. Plus the fact that our schedule allows busy executives the possibility to complete the program in less than one year.”

A Highly Innovative Executive MBA Program

This program is guided by the principle of belief in adaptability, change and growth. The program is delivered in a format that will meet the needs of full-time working business executives.

Why an Executive MBA?

There are major differences in age and prior work experience that have a significant impact on the way these students receive and absorb new learning; Learning needs of executive students are more context-oriented, i.e., students constantly evaluate their class experience in terms of how it would improve their decision-making skills given specific or unique situations in their work environment; and, Executive MBA classes are populated by students who are quite heterogeneous as a group in terms of diversity of educational backgrounds and professional work experience.

What will you learn?

You will follow a syllabus that reinforces your grasp of fundamentals such as business ethics, finance, strategic marketing, operations management, human resources management, supply chain management, accounting, environmental management, management information systems and leadership, giving you a well rounded and strategic view of international business in the modern world. A large proportion of your learning will be achieved through industry case studies, and executives are encouraged to contribute examples from their own career experience. You will also benefit from a faculty of expert lecturers and enjoy the same great educational experience as studying on campus, with a schedule that works around your busy schedule.
