7 MBA Courses

17 long weekends 30 months of study & work 150+ hours of Final Project 350+ hours of in class learning activity 500+ hours of self study For a total of 1000+ hours of learning experience

The 7 MBA Courses (mandatory) EMA-BIT core is made of 7 Mandatory Courses, the same programs and professors of MIB School of Management’s Executive MBA (www.emba.it) but taught in English.

The main difference will be that in the EMBA-BIT the courses will not be held 100% in class, but we will use a “blended” learning approach, i.e. 2/3 in class and 1/3 in distance learning. In this way instead of having 3 weekend (Fri-Sat) per course of in class lectures like the Executive MBA in Italian, we will have the following structure: • Opening “in class” weekend • Online learning phase of two months (Assignments + tutoring + Virtual Class one Friday every two) • One closing “in class” weekend • Study and Final test

Other learning activities On top of the 7 MBA Courses that provide 46 ECTS credits, there will be a total of 10 ECTS credits acquired by choosing among two BIT concentrations (or other learning activities such as learning trips or other electives). BIT Courses are all held in presence, not online.

The program ends with the development of a final project (4 ECTS credits) on a theme chosen with the School and supported by a supervisor.

Between the lectures • •

•

The main pedagogical challenge of the program will be keeping the participants oriented towards learning and committed to the MBA objective The periods between lectures will be devoted to: – Developing assigned tasks (activities) – Meeting team mates online if and when needed – Meeting the professors in web live once a week (Tue or Wed at 6.00 pm) – Attending to online lectures once every fortnight (Thu or Fri at 16.30) BIT concentration courses and coaching sessions will also be interspersed between lectures

HRM and Leadership Development Course • The HRLD course spreads throughout the whole program and has 6 weekends of classwork • It has a double function: – Integrate the program guiding participants towards their personal growth goals exploiting the learning in the EMA – Monitoring the development of the program and rapidly introducing the fine tuning actions in case they are needed
