Prepare yourself for challenging tasks in top management!
This MBA programme prepares you for demanding management tasks in today’s international business environment. Within the new curriculum, communication and leadership skills are highlighted. We set focus on essential management skills such as:
- Human Resource Management
- Finance
- Accounting
- Marketing
The MBA programme reflects the intercultural spirit of SRH Hochschule Berlin at its best. Participants from all over the world with different professional backgrounds discuss topics of global scope such as sustainability, intercultural intelligence and trust, and work in teams on practical management cases in cooperation with companies.
During three semesters, you will acquire business know-how in five leadership-oriented fields of competence (mind-sets) and develop sustainable strategies and skills to meet the challenges of the global digital economy, complex markets and social responsibility.
Rather than focusing on just one specific management area (e.g. Marketing, Finance or Human Resource Management) at a time, main challenges in modern management are seen as an umbrella for an interdisciplinary view on all relevant management subjects.
An innovative teaching approach focuses on the moderated integration of your personal experience as well as on the systematic and reflected exchange with other executives. Learn to translate managerial practice and methods into different functional fields of business administration and qualify yourself for top management positions.
