Master of International Business and Marketing
The industry of Mid-Western Norway is highly internationalised. Many businesses within this region operate on markets with a high degree of global competition. In spite of this region’s strong globalisation, this is the first master’s degree in management studies specialising in international business and marketing offered in this region.
Recent studies show that both the private and public sector are in demand of competence in international business. Recruiting personnel with advanced knowledge and skills in international business has proven difficult in Møre and Romsdal. Towards 2025 a substancial increase in the demand for international business managers is expected.
Program
The focus of the program is directed towards international activities in different branches of industry (seafood, maritime, furniture, etc.), but still provides skills and knowledge for adequate use in the public sector. The candidates are trained to work in Norway or abroad.
The whole program is taught in English. The general structure of the programme consists of 10 courses and a master's degree thesis.
- Program start: August 2012
- Program duration: four semesters (2 years)
During the second term (spring, first year) students may take part in an international exchange program with a cooperating university.
