MBA of Business Administration

Private Tutoring and Private Coaching

The Private Tutoring and Private Coaching options allow students to schedule additional one-on-one sessions with professors or study coaches to catch up on missed contact hours or to receive additional academic support. Sessions are charged per hour and take place on-campus at a time that is convenient for both the student and professor or coach.

Professional Internship

The Internship option encourages students to put their skills and knowledge into practice through offers received by our Careers Department from regional and international companies and organizations. No credits can be awarded for internships. Internship agreements of up to 3 months are available only for students with a national passport or residence permit and cannot be considered for a student visa extension.

Pre-Master Foundation Program

This entirely optional and fully customizable program allows students who do not hold a business-related Bachelor degree or equivalent to earn up to an additional 30 credits in levelling courses in order to be fully prepared for our graduate programs. Learn more at the Campus-based Pre-Master and the Online Pre-Master.

90-credit Dual Master

Continue at UIBS and earn a second private (programmatically-accredited) Master degree for an additional 30 European credits and a total of 90 European credits on a full-time or part-time basis throughout the campus network, including also in an online, executive or blended format. Any combination of programs is possible, including with those from our sister school, United School for Liberal Studies (UnitedSLS). The applicable program requirements will depend on the combination of programs. Shorter Graduate Certificate programs are also available that can be completed on top of your Master program. Additional dual degree programs are available with our academic partners; these typically add another academic year to your studies rather than 1 to 2 additional quarters.

Transfer between campuses

Students can transfer between campuses on a quarterly basis with guaranteed program compatibility. Our quarter-based academic calendar allows for a continuous study abroad experience across Europe and Asia.

Consider spending one or more quarters at our satellite campus in Tokyo, Japan and experience all the city and country have to offer.

Graduation ceremony

Each academic year, students from across the campus network celebrate their graduation in Barcelona, Spain. During the ceremony we honor all students who graduated in the past 12 months, all students who graduated just recently, as well as all imminent graduates who wish to participate. Watch the video of our most recent Graduation Ceremony below!

Global study trip

Each academic year, students from all campuses in Europe, as well as students from our academic partners can join our Global Study Trip to Tokyo, Japan. The weeklong trip is packed with cultural excursions, company visits, social activities and an Asian Management seminar.

Global Master program

Earn a Global Master degree at UIBS by studying in Europe and Tokyo, and finishing with one of our academic partners in the United States, such as UC Irvine or UC Berkeley.
