Master's in Strategy & International Management
-
When I applied to the program I wanted to learn German which may have been ambitious but I’ve made good progress to learn from the great body of professors here, to be with diverse and ambitious students and finally to jump start my career in strategy consulting. My expectations have met, sometimes exceeded. I realized I’ve met great people, formed an excellent professional network that I also hope to call “friends” for the rest of my life. I have traveled and discovered many new different places thanks to the program such as Indonesia. But also I did classes in Singapore and Berlin, we travelled to London as a class and also to Vienna and Prague with fellow SIMis.

Course programme
The compulsory courses advance students’ knowledge of the functional areas of management. Students explore advanced theories and concepts, examine managerial practice, and engage in scientific discussion.
Core electives
The core electives consist of another Advanced Management Course, in SIM Integratives and in SIM in Practice:
SIM Integratives
SIM Integratives focus on subjects of widespread and current interest in the field of management. Multidisciplinary perspectives are needed in order to embrace these subjects and explore ways to cope successfully with the major management challenges of our time.
SIM in Practice
Apart from attending these courses, a SIM student is required to find, plan, execute, and reflect on projects as part of SIM in Practice, which is made up of two innovative courses that are important components of the SIM programme: the SIM International Project and The SIMagination Challenge.
SIM students have to initiate and complete an international internship, called SIM International Project (SIM-IP). The purpose of the SIM-IP is for students to engage in challenging and practice-oriented work outside the classroom, yet topically related to their studies.
The SIMagination Challenge requires students to embark on a compulsory international social project which aims to create enriching and meaningful learning experiences for the managerial profession, to provide networking opportunities and to enhance career prospects. It encourages our students to be responsible global corporate citizens, not just competent managers. This course helps students develop entrepreneurial, interpersonal, team and leadership skills as well as cross-cultural competencies.
