tiered management studies in Germany at the Heidelberg International Business AcademyInternational courses of study have been the hallmark of Heidelberg International Business Academy for over 60 years. Take advantage of our experience and expertise, and let our international study courses prepare you in stages for an international career in vocational fields that call for your service orientation, talent for organisation and communication skills. The HIB courses combine Management studies with training in at least 2 foreign languages. The advantage in this for you: you acquire not only the requisite know-how for subsequent work in management, but also the communication skills indispensable in service industry jobs when it comes to dealing professionally with business partners from home and abroad. This way you can make full use of the professional oppor-tunities in this age of internationalisation and globalisation.

What is special about our study programme? Studying at HIB offers you manifold options and we prepare you in stages for an international career: with each year of study you expand your qualification profile and acquire a recognised diploma: from a state-certified vocational diploma/continuing education diploma to the British Bachelor's degree - an internationally recognised degree-level qualification. This means that you can decide for yourself how long you wish to study and with which diploma or degree you wish to launch your career.

HIB plans to introduce post-graduate courses following on from the Bachelor's degree and leading to the award of a Master's degree as of the winter semester 2011. This means that if you take up your studies in the winter semester of 2008, you can go on to take a consecutive Master's course in your specialist subject straight after receiving your Bachelor's award, since as plans currently stand, the accreditation of the Master's programme will have been completed in good time. The specialist subjects of Tourism, Events Management, Cultural Management and Business Management will be available right from the start.

In order to underscore the international nature of the Master's award, HIB is seeking validation from the Open University Validation Services. a process that has already been successfully undertaken for its Bachelor's programme. HIB an associate institution of the Open University. Once this accreditation is in place, you will be able to earn an internationally recognised Master's degree from the largest university in Great Britain. This award will bear not only the HIB crest but also that of the Open University, which enjoys an excellent reputation of both national and international standing. We are certain that this Master's degree will give you a competitive edge when applying for jobs and in the course of your subsequent professional development.

Christian Baum, International Business Management

international management studies in stages - graduate Christian BaumIt was clear to me right after Abitur: I wanted foreign languages to be a major part of my training, but it should also be geared to business. This meant that a course in International Business Management was absolutely ideal. I found the foreign language subjects particularly informative and motivating, as we were lucky enough to benefit from authentic language training delivered by native-speaking tutors. During my two placements, for which I felt well prepared as a result of the business modules, I was able to gather important practical experience for subsequent entry into the workplace.

The professional training at HIB allowed me to earn the internationally recognised Bachelor's degree by doing a top-up course at a partner institution. That year in England has remained one of my most pleasant experiences ever: the curriculum at HIB provided me with a solid grounding for the course, from which I graduated with distinction; I also made many friends and acquaintances amongst the students from other European countries, from which I still benefit today.

For a year now, I have been working as a consultant for Hager Management Consultancy and was able to notch up some considerable successes while still in my probation period. Our work focuses on the international placement of top managers, highly qualified executives and specialists in the fields of information technology and telecommunications. I owe my success so far to a large extent to HIB, because it was there that I acquired the essential prerequisites for a good start to my career. I'm glad I opted for this training.
