Globalisation is occurring - whether we like it or not. This fact requires a changing capacity of management skills which are adjusted to the international framework of world-wide business. The implementation of globalisation strategies requires the appropriate management tools which in general cannot be applied in a standardised and formalised way. Business performance nowadays has to be flexible and must take into account the local necessities there and then. Global management competence includes having the capability to accept different cultures and behaviours. There is no demand for "one world players" but for managers with empathy for the host country and its culture. Current studies of business administration and management are often not able to provide sufficient skills which are needed for global management.

Our MBA-course Master in Global Management endeavours to offer the opportunity to junior managers to add the specific competence which is inalienable for successful global business today.

The MGM-programme offered by Hochschule Bremen is a one-year full-time specialist MBA. The programme is characterized by a highly qualified teaching staff, an inspiring international and diverse student body, a faculty which offers a unique environment for intellectual exchange, joint research combined with academic excellence, practical orientation and an in-company internship.

The By doing this course students are one step closer to becoming specialists. Therefore it is necessary that participants have the basic economic/business ualifications to be considered for admission. The students shall deepen and broaden their management competences in terms of certain keyqualifications.

The core components of the MGM program cover the following skill areas:

  • Understanding the trends and interdependencies of a global world economy, its driving forces and different policies of multinational businesses
  • Evaluating general threats and opportunities of "going global"
  • Identifying the requirements of a globalization strategy for a business
  • Developing and implementing of a globalizationstrategy
  • Understanding intercultural decision-making andresponsibility for international business activities
