Introduction
Your gateway to leadership in international business
The Business Consultancy International Master's Degree Programme (MBCi) is an internationally focused programme taught entirely in English. It provides a particularly stimulating environment in which you and your fellow students from many different nations and cultural backgrounds work together with an international faculty.
Building upon a first degree in business, the two-year programme prepares you for future leadership positions with global companies. In the MBCi programme you can choose to specialise in one of the two specialisations:
Marketing Analytics
Treasury & Investment
Throughout the programme, you will acquire a range of management and consultancy skills in addition to specialisation in the areas of financial management and investment analysis, or in marketing and data analytics. It is envisaged that these courses will build on previous knowledge.
Through close collaboration with agencies, banks and other important companies, the curriculum combines traditional theory and methodology with hands-on tools and skills through case studies, projects and seminars. The contributions from you and your peers, combined with team work and social networking events, create additional added value on top of what is already a cutting-edge degree programme.

Practical Learning
Throughout the programme, you will acquire in-depth exposure to a range of management and consultancy skills in addition to specialisation in the areas of treasury and investment management or marketing analytics. It is envisaged that these courses will build on previous knowledge, and through close collaboration with companies, banks, and other important organisations, will combine traditional theory and methodology with hands-on tools and skills through case studies, projects and seminars. The small class sizes facilitate an intense and interactive learning environment whereby you will work with both the lecturers and your fellow students (and in some cases even external organisations) to apply your knowledge.
Top-notch Education
The majority of courses are led by highly qualified practitioners in their respective fields. We work closely with lecturers from banks, corporations, and other institutions to tailor a programme that meets the demands of the current market. Each specialisation course is designed by the university faculty in collaboration with expert lecturers to offer education that combines traditional theory with the skills and tools that are required on day one in the workplace.
International Atmosphere
There is no amount of theory that can fully prepare you for the challenges and rewards of actually working in and managing diverse teams. As worldwide financial markets and corporations become increasingly integrated and connected, students are expected now more than ever to have a global approach and experience working in a multicultural environment. Our degree programme offers immersion into a real melting pot of cultures and attitudes. Our students not only come from a variety of national and ethnic backgrounds but along with that comes a diversity of academic and working experiences as well. The contributions from your peers in class, group work and even social gatherings create additional added value on top of what is already a high-level degree.
