Highlights

Why MBA at HUB?
1. International class

MBA focus International Business Management not only provides plenty of opportunities to learn about business. The programme also invites students to discuss cultural aspects of business. As students come from different cultural backgrounds they can make valuable contributions to the course contents of the MBA and learn from each other.

2. Job opportunities

Graduates find jobs in a variety of management positions in multinationals, SMEs and public organizations because employers care about the general business skills that they develop in the MBA programme (analytical skills, communication skills, information processing skills).

That is why MBA students integrate easily in companies and jobs. And that is exactly what employers like!

3. Business orientation

* Company projects

The company project in the context of the Ma thesis is the ideal way to experience what business life really is. It is a scientifically underpinned practice oriented assignment, research project or case study carried out by the student and commissioned by a company, a public body, an association, a professional federation, or a non profit making association. A company project is very much focused on output and practice, requiring the student to be actively involved. The approach must always show a sufficient level of theoretical underpinning.

Examples of current projects:

What are the possibilities and constraints of linking teambuilding and incentives with Corporate Social Responsibility as a new motivational tool? THA Group
