The Global Business Management programme aims to provide students with the listed skills so as to enable them to quickly adapt to an international environment, whilst understanding the dynamics, and knowing how to effectively identify solutions to managerial problems in such settings.
The programme presents two types of courses:
- subjects relating to the managerial disciplines (strategy, HRM, accounting)
- subjects relating to business issues and problems typically associated with the processes of internationalisation of firms and the understanding of economic issues (managerial economics, financial reporting and performance measurement, business and government relations).
This is done to balance traditional knowledge of management with the specialisation and the development of specific internationalisation-oriented skills.
In addition, the programme also includes courses that intend to develop the capability to work in different social and cultural contexts and to review, develop and implement the issues that typically arise when firms go global.
The Graduate Degree Programme in Global Business Management is designed to match the most effective learning process of Business Schools:
- Case Studies
- Work groups
- Assignments
will be part of the curriculum.
The Graduate Degree Programme in Global Business Management has to be considered a learning organisation where the students are asked to be actively involved in the process, debating managerial issues and interacting with the professors and with peers.
A true international class with students coming from different countries, different cultures, with different backgrounds and expertises will make the difference adding value to the participants.
From a learning goal point of view, the Graduate Degree Programme in Global Business Management is designed to stimulate the students and get familiar with the work environment testing the decisions that managers have to take and the issues companies have to face daily.
The Faculty of the Graduate Degree Programme in Global Business Management is international with visiting professors, with resident faculty members and also with guest speakers.
The result is a true combination of academics and practitioners that allow the students to take advantage of the best of both worlds.
