MBA in Business Sociale

Management Theory + Business Cases, Challenges, and Skills

Focus on the foundations of Financial, Human Resource, Marketing, and Supply Chain Management; combine with courses from our contemporary Global, Digital, Sustainable, and Social Business clusters; choose additional courses from among shared electives; improve your business skills throughout the program; and bring it all together in a Business Plan or Business Project.

Everyone’s professional career is different, and we’ve always believed that your academic career can be too. You will be the one customizing your program based on your previous studies, current interests, and future ambitions. You will also attempt courses with students from other programs and concentrations through shared electives. Our program is modeled after our academic partner’s long-standing MBA program, through which it is also validated. We’ve made it our own and refined it for young metropolitan professionals such as yourself.
