Overview
The International Management program takes place in Europe, mostly in German speaking countries. Zurich Elite Business School (ZEBS) MBA courses are taught by world class professors, consultants and senior managers from major corporations.
A major component of the program involves several real-world consulting projects that are sponsored by corporations. These projects allow students to apply newly acquired skills and knowledge in the workplace, and aim to prepare them for managerial positions. This program also provides firms with the opportunity to develop future managers.
The international nature of the lecturers and student body provides fellows with the opportunity to work together and exchange knowledge with skilled people from other countries and cultures, also enabling them to broaden their cross communication skills.
Features
The primary objective of the International Management Program is to match high-potential candidates with full-time positions upon completion of the program. There is one main difference between the ZEBS IMP-International Management Program and other MBA programs.
Currently business schools around the world focus on off-the-job MBA seminars which transfer business-linked knowledge through theoretical courses and case studies. Business schools thus limit their responsibility to the theory processed during the seminars.
Quite contrary to this approach, the Zurich Elite Business School actively broadens its scope of assistance to the students. Through the IMP-International Management Program not only does the school consider itself responsible for a top-level off-the-job MBA education, but it also provides consistent support for the development of students on-the-job in real corporate life.
