This effective modular structure is the basis for a challenging yet flexible two-year program allowing for the completion of the MBA degree without having to put professional careers on hold. Two International Weeks at the end of Flex-Terms 2 and 3 offer further insights into European and Asian business environments and help enhance your international network. With their Master Thesis, MBA GM students demonstrate a profound understanding of current business topics and the ability to apply specific scientific methods to a real-world business situation.
