Business is increasingly faced with challenges that threaten current business models but also represent huge opportunities.

We emphasise both sophisticated scientific insights and linkages with business practice. The MSc in International Strategic Management combines state-of-the-art research with strong links to practise through industry projects in which scientific tools are applied to solve real company issues. The programme also offers the opportunity to combine the Master’s thesis with a company assignment.
