Arrangement of studies:

You will network with experienced professors and enthusiastic students from all over the world via inspiring group discussions and reflections, lectures, and business presentations. As teamwork is an essential part of the studies, you will be equipped with excellent co-operational skills in a multicultural environment.

As the studies are implemented online, it is possible to study the degree from your own home country and while you are working. The part-time students’ challenges in time management are carefully taken into consideration when implementing the studies.

During the entire study period, 2-3 intensive weeks are included and implemented with our international partner universities. The student can choose if they want to attend the intensive week on location or online. Some financial support for travelling can be provided, but the student needs to be prepared to cover some of the costs themselves.

Each course starts with an introductory session held online, followed by a development assignment done in groups. The lecturers will support the student groups throughout completion of the assignment and the lecturer is available for weekly guidance sessions for the groups. The different time zones are taken into consideration when arranging the guidance sessions.
