Aprendizaje y experiencia
The curriculum covers international strategy, marketing, finance, supply chains and people management, with a final research project. Case-based and participatory learning provides opportunities to discuss business decisions.
A useful way to approach the year is with a question you would genuinely like to understand: how a small company enters a new market, for example, or why the same product succeeds in one country and struggles in another. That curiosity can give direction to your reading, conversations and final project.
Solicitud
The current Business School admissions page asks for C1 English and a relevant undergraduate background; other backgrounds may be considered with substantial business experience. Use the official course and application guidance for documents and the next application window.
