Master Studium an der HIB
The increasing globally connected nature of modern business brings with it new
challenges to be addressed and new opportunities to be seized by managers with
expert leadership and communication competence.
HIB offers a postgraduate programme in International Leadership & Communication
leading to the award of a Master's degree. The overall objective of the
programme is to enable students to combine communication and leadership skills
to transform multicultural situations, in which various cultures simply coexist,
or possibly clash, into intercultural ones characterized by mutual respect and
reciprocal enhancement.
The Master studies are conceived as a consecutive programme and thus builds upon prior knowledge and skills gained from a relevant
first degree. The entry
requirement will therefore be a degree (Bachelor's or German Diplom) equivalent
to at least 180 ECTS credits in the special subject to be studied. Together with
the Bachelor's award, the Master's degree thus represents an overall total of
300 ECTS credits.
The
Master's programme is application oriented. Your subsequent 'employability' will
thus constitute a point of reference throughout. It is distinctive in that:
• it equips you with the leadership and communication tools to handle the
challenges and exploit the opportunities presented by
international business
• the lecturers have wide-ranging business, academic and international
experience
• it has a favourable tutor-student ratio allowing small group learning,
individualised supervision and personalised contact
• its approach to teaching and learning integrates theory and practice: theory

international business
