Introduction
The MSc in Management Program is being offered by the School of Humanities, Social Sciences, and Economics of the University Center of International Programmes of Studies of the International Hellenic University. The program is a highly flexible qualification offering access to a wide range of careers in general management, marketing, operations, and technology and consultancy services. It caters to the needs of recent graduates looking for an optimal combination of theory and a practical, hands-on approach. It is also of particular interest to those wishing to start up their own or join the family business. The first two terms aim to lay solid analytical foundations in all areas related to business and management. During the elective period, students are encouraged to deepen their knowledge and specialize in more specific areas, through four courses. A choice of a dissertation or a group consulting project concludes the program. The courses are taught exclusively in English.

The duration of the MSc in Management program is 1 year full-time or 2 years part-time. Teaching takes place during weekday afternoons, usually from 18.00 – 21.00. The program starts every October. The program is also available in distance learning mode.

The Dissertation or Consulting Project
After the taught courses, students conduct an individual project on a subject relating to their studies and career. The topic is chosen by the student with input and advice from a faculty member, who acts as supervisor, working closely with the student. The dissertation is an individual 10,000- word paper of original scientific work, which upon completion is submitted for examination and approval by a three-member committee chaired by the student’s supervisor.
Alternatively, students may participate in a consulting project. Individually or in groups, students study an actual problem of a collaborating firm or organisation. Following analysis of the problem, the students prepare and present concrete and practical solution(s) in a report of min 7,000 words. https://www.ihu.gr/ucips/geninfo/consulting-project
