Expansion into international markets presents companies with several challenges which require understanding, adaptation, and market-specific business best practices. This is exactly where IU's Master of Arts in International Management comes in. With the Master in International Management degree at IU you have the opportunity to not only gain a top degree in business and management but also specialise in a field that is attractive to you. Study online or on campus; with IU, you can choose.

• Completed undergraduate study from a public or officially recognized university/higher education institution (240 ECTS).
• Final grade of at least "Satisfactory" or grade C (as commonly used in the and Canada).

If you are lacking ECTS credits from your previous studies, you can demonstrate professional work experience for your online degree instead:

• To start a 60-ECTS MBA, you can “bridge” up to 60 ECTS by demonstrating 2 additional years of professional experience. This means you can access the One-Year programme already with 180 ECTS (if you prove one additional year of work experience) or 210 ECTS (if you can prove two additional years) from your previous studies.

Work Experience:

• At least one year of work experience before the start of the IU Master program (achieved after previous studies).
