Description Contents Requirements Funding

The IHU EMBA is a 24-month programme taught over a long weekend once a month.
Our programme is built in a flexible way to facilitate learning through a variety of teaching methods, technologies, environments, workshops and integrating seminars.

The IHU EMBA is founded on three guiding principles:

* Academic excellence
* Practical application
* International relevance

Upon completion of the EMBA Programme, you will have:

* a thorough grasp of the principles and applications of key management functions, together with technical and conceptual skills
* a focus on, and appreciation of, strategic issues in many industry sectors
* a genuinely international, multicultural perspective and an understanding of the challenges facing global business
* a highly flexible qualification suitable for a wide range of career opportunities

The Field Trip
The EMBA field trip provides participants with the opportunity to explore first-hand the business practices in different South Eastern European countries. Groups of four students visit an organisation in Greece and/or the region. The exercise not only helps to integrate the theory with practical application, but also places important emphasis on the international aspects of politics, economics and business in the region.

The Integrating Seminars
The purpose of the Integrating Seminars is to provide a forum for participants to interact, discuss and debate contemporary economic and business issues with leading economic policy makers, senior managers and academics.

Professional Development Programme
The professional development programme is made up of a series of workshops and seminars aimed at developing softer skills to complement the more traditional skills participants learn as part of the EMBA. They include, for example, one-to-one support, career coaching, mind mapping, presentation skills, creativity and presentation, media training, networking and interviewing.

The Timetable
The programme operates on Friday 12:00 am to Sunday 16:00 pm once a month except April, August and December. Examinations take place during these weekend periods.
