Design of the studies and didactic concept

Design of the studies

Our courses are especially designed for full-time professionals. The course language is English.

The lectures of the 4-semester course of studies take place in Ho Chi Minh City all day on Fridays and Saturdays and/or in blocs of 4 to 7 days, thus hardly affecting working life. A total of 64 days are provided. The summer semester starts in mid-March and ends in mid-June. The winter semester starts in mid-October and ends in mid-December. The exams run parallel with the studies, i.e. homework and presentations are carried out during the semester, written exams are taken at the end of the semester.

Students have the option to study selected MBA-IMC® modules as guests in our programmes in Germany, India and Switzerland. Opportunities to participate in other I-IMC programmes, for example in the USA or Thailand, can be offered.

In your second year you have the option to study and work in Germany. A work permit is not needed. The course language in Germany is also English; still basic German is required for the stay in Germany.

For detailed information see “Prerequisites”.

Didactic concept

In a similar pattern to that of management training, the lectures are a combination of short presentations, workshops and teamwork in small groups. Case studies and simulations are developed, the results presented by the students. On request, small consulting projects are supervised by the professors, thus supplementing the acquired know-how by practical experience.

On the initiative of the students, extracurricular activities, such as study groups, common activities and events, can be organised in cooperation with the MBA-IMC®-team.
