PRE-MASTER in BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION

Pre-MBA Program Description

The 2010 Graduate Summer School/Pre-MBA at the International University of Monaco (IUM) is an 90-hour non-credit program completed in approximately three weeks.

The Pre-MBA is designed to allow students of IUM MBA and Master Programs to be fully prepared to successfully undertake the intensive coursework at the graduate level. Given the wide variety of backgrounds, cultures, and fields of study of IUM students it is generally acknowledged that they need to acquire an initial familiarity with the accepted concepts, methodology, and terminology in key business fields before they begin advanced studies in the area.

The Pre-MBA seeks to provide a basic understanding of business principles and the skills necessary for their efficient application. It also introduces the types of subject matter – and their particular challenges – students may encounter in their studies, while honing communication in the cross-cultural context.
