MBA Brazil and Europe Business Relations
Alma Graduate School
Università di Bologna
The MBA Brazil-Europe Business Relations is a challenging, intensive 12-month full-time international program taught entirely in English.
The aim of this initiative is to create a group of young managers, able to lead business relations and projects between Brazil and Europe. In a few years, this group of people will rapidly create a new business community where individuals can find support and opportunity for themselves and their companies.
The curriculum of the MBA Brazil-Europe Business Relations is divided into two main parts: General Management (MBA core courses), which is designed to provide students with the necessary management and business skills; and a Brazil-Europe Business Relations concentration, designed to provide an opportunity for specialization and in-depth focus on this broad topic.
This full-time, post-experience MBA also includes: managerial training, team-based project works, workshops with managers and entrepreneurs, in-company visits, access to the Alma Alumni Network (approximately 5,000 managers and professionals in Italy and abroad), and more.
Other program features are: internships, career development activities, a Brazilian Portuguese language course, and Business English classes. Intensive Italian lessons are offered free of charge to international participants who wish to improve their language skills during their stay in Italy. Italian classes are scheduled in September, prior to the beginning of the MBA activities.
Internship and Career
Creating employability is one of the primary goals of the MBA Brazil-Europe Business Relations program. Therefore, interaction between theory and practice is an essential part of the curriculum: master lectures, testimonials, analysis of business cases, and in-company visits will take place throughout the year and will go side by side the core academic courses.
The program also includes a 500-hour internship scheduled in the last period of the program (June - September). Internships will take place at European or international companies with important relations with Brazil or Brazilian companies with significant business in Europe. The internship represents an opportunity for MBA participants to analyze real company problems, develop strategies, and elaborate action plans together with upper level managers.
Alma's partners have been involved in our academic activities over the years in many different ways: participating in project works, master lectures, and testimonials, offering scholarships, hosting our student internships, or employing our alumni.
