“The new master’s programme is based on the strengths of our business school, and in accordance with the wishes of our students. Our focus is on the skills needed to succeed in the future”, says professor Kalanit Efrat.
She is the leader of the new programme, and will also be teaching marketing skills and strategies.
Specializations
The Master’s of Management will offer three different specializations, to allow students to acquire the skills they want a greater proficiency in. The specializations are:
· Strategic marketing
· International business
· Innovation and transformation
There are also plans underway to offer a fourth specialization in entrepreneurship.
The first year of the programme will give students a general overview of different aspects of management, and during this year the students will decide which specialization they are most interested in.
"Unique position"
“Norway has a unique position in the global market, with a combination of high quality coupled with transparency. UiA benefits from Norway’s strengths will also offering stunning surroundings and a welcoming and inclusive atmosphere. We are looking forward to welcoming many international students to our programme”, says Professor Efrat.
The number of students is capped at 100. The intention is that this will make it easier for students to connect with each other, and the teaching faculty. Professor Efrat and the team of leading professors who will teach in the new program aim to equip the students with skills that are in demand both now and in the future.
“The skills we focus on are timeless, although we use current technologies and stay up-to-date with new developments. The competencies we help our student build will support diverse future roles in businesses around the world”, says Professor Kalanit Efrat.
