Program Description & Format

The MBA program offers courses on a monthly basis throughout the entire academic year starting in October through September. Each course involves 2-3 days of interactive seminars led by internationally recognized scholars who convey their expertise and encourage participation through a variety of innovative teaching methods. The schedule is convenient for working professionals with blocked courses taking place on 4-5 consecutive weekdays and weekends. MBA students who finish all required courses in the first 12 months of the program can complete their degree in 18 months, with 4 months dedicated entirely to writing the master’s thesis. An extended format also gives participants the option to increase their study time to 24 months, allowing even more scheduling flexibility and additional time to work on the master’s thesis.

An extensive offering of Enrichment Courses ensures flexibility to meet individual preferences and ambitions, with 75% of the program consisting of compulsory elements (Core Courses) and 25% Enrichment Courses. The Enrichment Courses are a unique opportunity to personalize the MBA program to match the student’s career, interests, aspirations, and expectations and are offered in four innovative fields: 

• Digital Marketing
• Entrepreneurship, Innovation & Leadership
• Innovation & Experience Design for Tourism
• Real Estate Management
• Sustainable Management & Governance
