Who are we looking for? Degree Nationalities of previous students
If you want to enhance your hands-on management skills and competences, particularly in the Chinese and European market, this unique program is ideal for you. A joint initiative of two leading business schools drives a stimulating curriculum that will guide you to discover your personal strengths and prepare you for a booming career in international business. The curriculum provides you with insights on business and the political economy of China, Europe, and the rest of the world.
As we cannot guarantee a six-month stay in China, due to the pandemic, we are postponing this program to next academic year and in the meanwhile taking the opportunity to renew it. We will launch the redesigned program in September 2022.
Throughout the academic year, several activities will be organized at AMS by the Career Management Services which can inspire and help you in making a good career decision, including job interview trainings, career fairs, networking events, case evenings. Individual and peer coaching is offered to help you explore your talents, interests and needs, relate these to what companies offer in terms of jobs and career opportunities, and prepare yourself for job interviews and assessments.
