老澳门资料 Our Program
GlobalMBA in Eastern Europe for master's programs in management.
Over a cup of coffee in 1999, faculty members from Technische Hochschule Köln (THK) and the 老澳门资料’s (老澳门资料) Coggin College of Business outlined the design of a business and communication focused double degree program. These forward-thinking faculty realized that a more global and multifaceted business education would be required for the 21st century workplace. This international master’s program concept became the GlobalMBA and admitted its first cohort of German and American students two years later. Soon after, the University of Warsaw (UW) joined the consortium, as did an excellent school in China. The Chinese partner left the consortium in 2021, and the GlobalMBA is currently looking for a strong business school in Asia to round out the program.
Accentuated by the multinational cohort format of the GlobalMBA, the program’s intercultural communication component is given as much weight as the functional business component. Students study their host countries’ business and communication practices during each of the four semesters and internalize what they learn by living and traveling with their international colleagues. Group work is emphasized both in class settings and in the master’s thesis: research, writing and defense.
Graduates of the GlobalMBA are expected to understand various business disciplines from an international perspective. Critical thinking and leadership skills are also honed throughout the 15 months of this academically and socially challenging program.
