University of Edinburgh Business School
University homeMBA in International Business
Today's business transactions are rarely bound by international borders. It is imperative therefore that we understand the implications of this modern global economy. The MBA in International Business will immerse you in a world of cross-border deals, trade agreements, emerging markets and multinational business.
It provides a comprehensive preparation for a managerial career in international business, providing students with:
- a solid grounding in the major management disciplines and concepts.
- the opportunity to analyse and test techniques.
- a true understanding of what lies behind business jargon.
- the skills to integrate applications.
The 15 month MBA in International Business includes an exchange with one of our partner universities, as well as an internship in a country outside the student's country of origin. This internship often serves as the basis for the dissertation.
The programme is both broad and deep, providing an overview of all the major management techniques as well as an insight into the more specialised areas of leadership.
You will work both individually and collaboratively in small teams, drawn from many different nationalities, finding innovative solutions to real world problems. You will also experience different national approaches to business via exchanges, visits abroad and by way of an overseas business internship. This knowledge base will be significantly increased by the coursework.
