One study programme, two options

MBA, full-time: The study programme provides you with in-depth knowledge of economics, management know-how, and intercultural skills, as well as supporting your personal development. It thus optimally prepares you for a management position. The MBA is designed as a full-time programme over two semesters and offers you an efficient way to achieve your career goals.

MBA, part-time: Complete your MBA programme at EBS with maximum flexibility – without any loss of salary. With this version of the EBS MBA, you have the opportunity to extend your studies to four semesters. This allows you to combine the advantages of part-time study with the full study experience of a classic full-time programme.

As full-time MBA students, you may choose to complete an internship of at least four weeks in a field related to your programme of study. The aim of the internship is to enable you to apply your academic knowledge in a business environment. The internship will be assessed through a project paper that focuses on the link between theory and practice.

There are no application deadlines at EBS. However, to ensure a smooth start to your studies, we recommend that you submit your application before 30 June (for a start in the winter semester) and before 30 November (for a start in the summer semester). For international applicants who require a visa, we recommend that you submit your application before 30 May (for a start in the winter semester) or 15 October (for a start in the summer semester).

If your application documents meet our admission requirements, we will invite you to an individual interview. During this interview, we will assess your motivation and social skills.
