Structure

The Master in International Management consists of 4 teaching periods which address both general business as well as specialized skills.

First period (October-December)

All Masters in Management students (Master in Marketing, Master in International Management, Master in Biotechnology Management and Master in Telecom & Digital Business) work and study together to develop the fundamental skills required by today's top managers. Key areas such as financial accounting, marketing, quantitative methods, and organizational behavior are covered in this first term.

A core element of IE's philosophy is that an entrepreneurial mindset and management style are essential for modern business leaders.

Students learn how to analyze business ideas, creatively capture value, and value marketing strategies in their different stages of development. The first term also includes the Accelerate program, initiating the continuous development of "soft skills" such as teamwork, communication, and leadership skills.

Second Period (January - March)

The core applied module takes place, during which business fundamentals are applied to the international arena. You will prepare reports and give presentations. As teamwork and knowledge-sharing play an increasingly crucial role, workshops and team-building sessions are held in order to translate theory into practice.

Third Period (April - June)

You will now have a sound working knowledge of the globalized business environment, having developed your management skills, and are proficient in strategic and innovative thinking. You are now equipped to take your education to specialized levels. During this term you will assume the role of senior international manager and corporate leader as they think through and solve complex business problems.

Fourth Period (July - November)

The final period, the Beyond Borders Experience, opens up a world of personalization options which compliment your studies at IE, furthering your academic knowledge whilst also offering the experience so essential to putting your knowledge into practice. You will be able to choose from a host of personalization options: exchange program that open the door to the ever-invaluable experience provided by exposure to new cultures; IE's Venture Lab to hone your entrepreneurial skills; or an internship program to help you gather some invaluable experience.
