...of Learning and Educational Objectives

The English-speaking programme is module based and is divided into two parts. It is comprised of a MAS and a MBA programme. The whole MAS programme lasts about 16 months. The basic study module and the other parts of the course are carried out in a blocked format.

The course is designed as an “Executive Programme” specifically for managers and entrepreneurs. The programme is designed to deliver the specific knowledge, experience and skills needed for managing businesses on a global scale.

Modern information and communication technology for teaching and learning purposes is used ( i. e. Internet on-line discussion, business simulations and video conferences ) and simultaneously enhances the methodological competence of the participants in this area.

The teaching for the basic study takes place either at the University of Liechtenstein, Vaduz or at the Vorarlberg University of Applied Sciences, Dornbirn, as well as at Schloss Hofen, Lochau. The module is normally taught from Thursday afternoon through to Saturday afternoon, with a module being completed every two to three weeks.

The extended courses are organised and provided by the partner universities
( St. Petersburg, 1 week / Cheltenham, 1 week and 2 weeks MBA-part in addition / Shanghai/Hangzhou, 1 week ).
