The city of Reutlingen, an established centre of industry and commerce with over 100,000 inhabitants, is situated in the state of Baden-Württemberg which is on the most prosperous regions of Germany. One of the cornerstones of Reutlingen University with approx. 5.800 students is its international dimension.

The MBA International Management Full-Time prepares high potentials from non-business fields for management tasks in global companies. In an intense one-year programme taught in English, students acquire a wide range of management and leadership skills within a truly international environment. They choose between three specialisations and apply all of this know-how in a company-based project of their choice. A final master’s thesis (also of two months duration) caps off the management education experience. The practical phase can be extended to include the students writing their thesis in cooperation with their CBP firm or another, as available.  

The MBA International Management Part-Time is perfectly compatible with your professional life: lectures on a maximum of 8 weekends and 1 block week per semester allow you to concentrate on successive subject areas in a manageable amount of time.
