The Power of our Master’s Program

A Master’s degree must be a step towards the job of your dreams; not just a first job, or an ambitious career plan.

We have carefully packed the core curriculum of our Master of International Business with the skills that make a real difference in a Business program: Coding, Big Data, Entrepreneurial Skills.

We have specifically designed concentrations in fields that require specific knowledge and tools : Entrepreneurial Leadership, Finance & Sustainability.

We have left an important space to you, for your personal initiative during your capstone. You can opt for a paid internship in Switzerland, the development of your entrepreneurial project, a semester in a leading Chinese university or even the preparation for the CFA Diploma.

We provide you with the structure and expertise with which to support you throughout your academic journey. However, the driving power of a BSL Master’s degree rests with you.
