Alba Graduate Business School: Shaping Future Business Leaders in Athens
Alba Graduate Business School is more than just a place to study; it's where innovative thinking and business smarts come together. In the heart of Athens, this top European business school is known for doing things differently and helping the students realize their version of success.
Education That Stands Out
Embracing agility and business relevance as our core values, we stay true to our "Business Unusual" motto across our suite of 4 MBA and 9 MSc programs. Our offerings are diverse, spanning in-class graduate programs, hybrid offerings including workshops across Greece, and a top-notch online program, all curated to equip our students with innovative and practical business acumen. This is education designed for the movers, the innovators, and the visionary leaders of tomorrow.
A Community That Cares
With about 400 postgraduate students, Alba is a place where everyone gets the attention they need. The teachers are top-notch, with many coming from famous schools like Harvard and London Business School. They're not just good at teaching; they're also leaders in their fields, often publishing their research and sharing new ideas in business.
Academic Excellence and International Recognition
Alba's commitment to academic excellence is prominently reflected in its diverse faculty. Comprised of resident experts with extensive international experience, our faculty members not only conduct impactful research but also seamlessly apply their findings in the classroom, ensuring a dynamic and enriched learning experience for our students. To augment this commitment, Alba strategically engages with distinguished scholars from top institutions and hosts guest lecturers renowned for their expertise from prestigious places like Harvard, INSEAD, and Wharton. Demonstrating our commitment to a holistic approach that goes beyond theoretical learning, Alba actively incorporates teaching fellows from diverse industries. This integration not only enriches the academic experience by bringing real-world perspectives into the classroom but also significantly enhances the practical relevance and applicability of our education.
Moreover, Alba's international recognition is underscored by its accreditation from NECHE, AMBA accreditation for its MBA programs, and EFMD accreditation for the MSc in Finance and MSc in SHRM. These accreditations solidify Alba's position in the global academic landscape, emphasizing its commitment to providing a high-quality and globally recognized education.
World-Class Connections
Alba goes beyond the classroom, connecting students with over 80 partner schools around the world for exchanges, joint degrees, and trips that show what international business is all about. This global perspective is a big part of what makes an education from Alba so special.
Welcoming International Students
For students coming from other countries, Alba is a welcoming place with all the help they need to settle in, from visa support to finding a nice place to live. Scholarships are available, too, covering up to 35% of tuition for those who show they're really good at what they do.
