The objective of an EMBA course is to endow students with basic knowledge in general management, to develop their decisions making and innovation capabilities as well as to improve their leadership skills. The first part of the Executive MBA programme addresses this need with courses that teach how to manage and organize a company’s processes and resources and, at the same time, initiate the process of each student’s personal development.
Formats
MIP’s Executive MBA is offered as a part-time or evening Programme.
This means that participants can obtain an internationally recognised qualification – an Executive MBA – without interrupting their careers. Such an organization makes it easier for both students and their company to choose to invest in their professional development. Combining classroom lessons with daily work means that students can immediately put into practice what they have learnt, so that the learning process is more effective and engenders an immediate benefit to their companies.
MIP's Executive MBA is offered as:
Flexible Programme
The Executive MBA is a modular Programme, which is easily adaptable to the needs of participants. Students admitted to the first year can decide later on whether and when to continue with the second year, as long as the whole Programme is completed within a three-year period. On completion of the first year the student is awarded an Executive Course Diploma in Innovation and Business Management.
The Programme is completed in the second year with students receiving an Executive MBA qualification that is recognised as a postgraduate Master degree from Politecnico di Milano.
Our Executive MBA programme aims to develop skills in business management and innovation using a variety of advanced teaching methods including lessons, case studies, simulations, distance learning and presentations given by managers and consultants.
The Programme consists in three main building blocks: Compulsory foundation courses - General Management, Elective courses/Specialization streams, Project work.
1. Core courses - General management
2. Elective courses / Specialisation Streams
Our students have very different backgrounds. Hence, they require personalised pathways. Accordingly, during their second year, students can choose from a wide list of elective modules offered by the MIP Business School. These elective courses focus on advanced basic management topics, in line with the personal interests of the students and their training requirements. In this respects, the students have two options:
- they can choose five elective modules in different management fields;
- they can specialise by choosing one of the four streams offered by the MIP Business School: Entrepreneurship, ICT and Digital Transformation, Innovation Management and International Management.
3. Project work
Project work is a crucial part of the Organizational Behaviour area that involves problems and situations of specific interest to the students or to the companies sponsoring them. For student selecting one of the specialisation streams the project work is part of the experience of the stream itself and is focused on contents that are coherent with the subject of specialisation.
Doing Business In..
One option is for students to enhance their training by taking one or more three-day elective courses at various European business schools or experience more intense involvement through “Doing Business in...”, where they are immersed for one week in the culture of a country with high development potential, visiting successful local and international companies.
