International Master's Programme in International Business (IB)

The degree programme in International Business provides a Master's Degree of high international standards.

International business is a subject that needs to be approached from many different points of view in order to give a comprehensive understanding of the challenges confronted by internationally operating firms. International business studies and research deal with challenges faced by both large multinational companies, as well as by smaller firms planning their first operations in international markets or aiming to strengthen their global presence.

Special attention is paid to running and building international growth businesses especially in technology oriented industries. In the programme, the collaboration between different departments gives students a wide knowledge of the different aspects of international business. The programme concentrates also on the decision making processes in internationalisation and to the strategies for developing and managing international business relationships.

The programme is designed for students with different university level study backgrounds. As a minimum prerequisite, an applicant needs to have an appropriate Bachelor's (or equivalent) degree. The programme is ideal for those who have background education in business studies, social sciences or engineering.
