What is a Global MBA?

The corporate world today demands that you have high organisational, management, and leadership skills, especially if you want to have a professional career at an international level. You also need to stay on top of the latest business and economic trends to be successful.

Therefore, maybe a traditional MBA is not the program you are looking for, and it should go further. A Global MBA, like the one we offer you at the Universidad Europea, can be the solution because it tends to have a more international focus to acquire and develop the necessary skills before progressing in your professional career.

In this post, we’ll look at the Global MBA in more detail, and assess the advantages of choosing the program.

Global MBA: Definition

A Global MBA is a university program that provides training in international business management. The curriculum is designed in such a way that you gain an international perspective on different business concepts and ideas.

A Global MBA helps you explore global business operations and processes and understand the differences between international and domestic companies, how they work, the stuctures in place, and more.

What is the difference between an MBA and a Global MBA?

A Global MBA is usually suitable for students who are looking to live abroad for their professional careers in the finance, business and commercial sectors or at least work in multinational organisations. The program's curriculum has a broader diversity of topics and includes concepts related to the international business community. At Universidad Europea, our Global MBA, which is 100% in English, includes subjects such as:

• Tax systems
• Strategic management
• Commercial administration
• Human resources management
• Creativity and innovation

In addition, a Global MBA usually has students from many countries around the world, creating a more diverse and enriching environment. Also, there will be opportunities to study abroad at other universities around the world. At Universidad Europea, we have agreements with universities in Europe, the US and Asia to be able to carry out exchanges abroad and boost your international profile.
