International Business Management – (M.A.)

Why studying International Business Management?

International Business Management is a two-year full-time Master´s study program, which aims to enable graduate students to acquire the necessary business and socio-economic knowledge and skills to specialise in international management. Growing globalisation and regionalisation at the beginning of the 21st century presents new challenges for the economy. Above all, further eastward expansion of the EU has created new business opportunities for Austria. To meet the challenges posed by the internationalisation of networks of value creation requires adequately qualified employees; employees who, in addition to a solid business background, also have sufficient know-how regarding the specific cultural aspects and socio-economic conditions in the inter-regional business environment of Southeast and Central Europe (SECE). International Business Management addresses this need.

Curricular Focus

* International Management, Marketing, Internationalisation and Export
* European Business Law, International Contracting and Financing
Moreover, students gain a structured insight into the socio-cultural and political characteristics which should be considered when setting up or strengthening business ties and are necessary for successful business relations with Southeast and Central Europe. The program is therefore designed for managers and managers-to-be whom in addition to the necessary business competence, will also possess very good intercultural skills as well as excellent language skills resulting from English as the language of instruction as well as a compulsory second Foreign Language (Croatian, Italian, Slovene, or German as a Foreign Language).
