Business and Management Program

The program consists of the following blocks: foundation courses, general business courses, specialization business courses, elective courses. The teaching methodology focuses on a combination of lectures (to provide the necessary theoretical knowledge required) and seminars (where students can apply the theory in practice). Seminars include interactive discussions, small group work, student projects and presentations, case studies and other business problem related issues. In addition to business, economics and social science elective courses, students are also offered the possibility to study foreign languages. After 6 academic semesters, students will achieve a one semester (15 weeks uninterrupted) internship in a company where they will have to opportunity to apply their knowledge in real life. The curriculum thus provides a sound theoretical basis for the students’ future career, as well as combining theoretical knowledge with hands-on practice. The program is taught entirely in English and the truly international student body provides graduating students with the additional advantage of having worked together with students of other countries and cultures for 6 academic semesters.
