The programme truly applies professional knowledge and skills into practice. You will be working together with students and faculty from all over the world.

The MIBM master’s programme has a strong focus on developing communication competences that you can apply in an authentic and multicultural business setting.

To create a business plan, get a go-ahead and begin implementation of the plan, you must communicate and cooperate with external stakeholders, as well as colleagues in all layers of an organisation. 

On top of this, the MIBM offers you the opportunity to obtain a dual degree, allowing you to study for one third of the programme at Anglia Ruskin University (ARU) in Cambridge, UK.
