This Master’s program fosters a global, systemic understanding of business, equipping students with a comprehensive vision of key management fields within the context of a rapidly evolving, globalized economy.

The program prepares future leaders to drive sustainable business practices that align with the growing demands of social and environmental responsibility.
The Master’s program is open to students who hold at least a bachelor’s degree or an equivalent diploma of at least 180 ECTS.
