PROGRAMME OBJECTIVESMSc International Business Management in cooperation with London South Bank Uni-versity (www.lsbu.ac.uk) provides you with a systematic, comprehensive, in-depth study of the subject matter of international business. You‘ll develop the ability to critically evaluate and appraise existing theories and ideas about changes taking place in the world of interna-tional business. You‘ll also build an awareness and understanding of how different cultural attitudes and beliefs shape the international business environment in different regions of the world.

Graduates will be effective decision-makers, able to apply and adapt theory to practice and to confidently engage in critical independent thinking.

PROGRAMME CONTENTSThe four core modules in Mainz and Lon-don (semester 1: International Management, International Marketing and International Finance and Decision Making in Mainz; semester 2: Strategic International Human Resource Management in London) plus the dissertation form the frame of the MSc International Business Management (MSc IBM). Additionally, two electives in London in semester 2 complete this master‘s pro-gramme.

You‘ll develop team-working skills through group projects, case studies and other forms of collaborative work. The programme is taught completely in English

There are also a number of specialist path-ways associated with the Master‘s in Inter-national Business Management, which allow you to specialise in your field of interest in semester 2 in London and will lead to one of the following MSc IBM awards from LSBU:

International Business Management • with Finance• with HRM• with Marketing• with Project Management

PROGRAMME STRUCTUREThe MSc IBM programme takes 3 semesters in total. Students spend their first semester at Mainz University of Applied Sciences, and the second semester at London South Bank University (LSBU). During their third semes-ter, students will work on their master’s thesis at LSBU.

Semester 1 of the programme will be offered simultaneously (same time, structure, con-tents and assessments) at London South Bank University. In Mainz we offer a full-time pro-gramme, with courses taking place in the late afternoon and/or evening (allowing students to work).

In semester 2 all students meet in London and study together – an experience intended to prepare them for the challenges of globali-zation of the world’s economy.

PROFESSIONAL CAREEREmployment prospects are excellent. Suc-cessful students can, in addition to senior management roles, build a career in a vari-ety of roles in consulting, marketing, finance and human resource management. In this respect the personal development emphasis on the course reflects the skills demanded for flexible roles in managing across a variety of organisational cultures and functions inside multinational companies.
