Utbildningen

The impact of globalization is evident in the market place. Managers of tomorrow must be equipped to navigate the opportunities and threats created by an increasingly complex web of global competition and dependencies.

The International Business Management programme (IBM) aims to prepare you for the challenges of international business in the 21st century. It gives the base for professional specialization in the economics and business administration area.

Essential for the programme are close contacts with society, teachers and other students. You create your network for future business life already during your study years.

It is strongly encouraged that you participate in an exchange programme for one or two semesters in another country. This gives you the opportunity to develop your intercultural and language skills.

You can focus your studies on accounting, marketing, management or economics. The learning activities include traditional lectures, but also require active participation in exercises, paper writing, presentations and discussions in seminars. The study programme also develops the students’ personal skills concerning oral/written presentations, creativity, entrepreneurship, critical thinking, information searches, the assessment of material, and team work.

Welcome to the International Business Management programme!
