Master Programme in International Business and Management (MSc): Blended Learning

The unique mix of different learning styles, called Blended Learning, is a modern form of teaching that combines e-learning, self-study and intensive in-class teaching seminars, aimed at professionals with limited time. The block seminars are learning opportunities that use case studies, group interaction, business simulations and lively discussions.

Students are expected to actively participate in the seminars and therefore must complete the directed reading instruction from tutors, given in the preparation phase, to engage with the module content before coming to a session.

As a student on the programme you will have access to our student platform at any place and time. Even when you are away you can access the teaching material, get in touch with tutors as well as your fellow students regarding group work and study questions. In addition to the teaching material, supplied via our student platform prior to any teaching session, every participant receives access to the university´s online resources and various electronic journal services with a broad range of relevant literature. During the teaching seminars you will use the tutor input to work on case studies and you are encouraged to also use current projects from your company to discuss with your fellow students. Sharing knowledge and experience with your fellow students from different professional backgrounds is a very valuable experience of the MSc programme. It helps you broaden your personal perspective and to build up your network.
