This program’s rising popularity in the Czech Republic is due partly to the fact that it is designed for an international student audience, looking into pursuing a global career.

What can a master’s degree in International Management from UNYP do for your career? 

“The graduates of this program are generally younger than MBA students,” explains Mr. Karagiannis. “After graduating as Masters of International Management, they work in junior management positions in a variety of fields. We see that our graduates are especially likely to go into HR and Marketing, either in the companies where they previously worked or in new companies. More than 90% of our graduates find jobs – sometimes, even while they are still studying! This program is popular among students who have recently finished their undergraduate studies because, unlike an MBA program, we do not require applicants to have at least three years of work experience. However, degree seekers with prior work experience will also find this degree useful. Another significant asset of this program is our internationally diverse faculty. Our lecturers are experts in their respective fields and have solid professional experience, which means that they offer our students much more than just academic knowledge.”
