16-Month Program
We have two intakes each year, in January and September. All of our MBA students follow the exact same core curriculum, regardless of intake and specialization.
The 16-month-long curriculum is specifically designed to give you the time needed to learn new skills, as well as gain specific work experience in a new sector or job function. It incorporates a personalized career-development program with our Career Center, as well as unique, hands-on learning and leadership opportunities.
It is an ideal length of time to make a real impact on your future without keeping you out of the workforce for too long.
The curriculum is divided into two phases: Fundamental and Customized.
Fundamental Phase
In the 8-month Fundamental Phase, a rigorous combination of academic training and hands-on learning teach core management skills. After eight months, you have developed the exact skills needed to transform business performance.
Customized Phase
During the 8-month Customized Phase, you tailor the MBA program to match your personal aspirations and professional objectives. We offer a wide range of options including specializations (concentrated learning in one sector), elective courses, international exchanges and internship opportunities, as well as in-depth learning projects.
Students of both intakes have the opportunity to merge together into one class during the Customized Phase, creating a sense of teamwork in a collaborative community.
