International Business and Management Studies: The curriculum concentrates on international marketing and trade, export management and business development. In the first year the focus is on establishing and running a company and on globalisation. In the main phase, you learn to manage a company that has to perform on an international playing board and outsmart competition all over the world. The programme concentrates on cross cultural management.
International Financial Management: A full and varied curriculum concentrates on financial accounting and business administration. The first year is centred around a set of crucial management skills in the field of international finance. In the main phase you learn how to manage the financial resources of a company and will, therefore, be at the heart of business decision making. For all programmes a substantial part of the study is spent abroad. There is a mandatory exchange programme at one of our 100 partner institutes worldwide.
