A central aspect for the successful completion of a part-time MBA program is the intensive interaction between the participants.
In order to facilitate as broad a discussion as possible, the Executive MBA is attended by participants from a wide range of industries with the most diverse academic backgrounds possible.
To date, GSB has successfully graduated 563 students from 23 Executive MBA programs.
Examples of the participants’ fields of activity:
Bertelsmann, Boehringer, BorgWarner, Commerzbank, Degussa, Deutsche Bank, Deutsche Telekom, Ernst Young, Hewlett Packard, Hornbach, IBM, KfW, KPMG, Lufthansa, Bankhaus Metzler, Merck, PwC, Railion AG, R+V-Versicherungen, Sanofi-Aventis, SAP, Siemens, ZDF
The curriculum comprises an introduction week, five required modules on the core management subjects, four required elective modules with specialization options in the areas of “Law”, “International Management”, “Operations” and “Health Management”, two of which must be completed (participation in all four is possible) and a module abroad at one of GSB Mainz’s partner universities. Each module consists of three related courses.
- An undergraduate degree or equivalent*
- Seven years’ work experience
- An admissions interview, the result of which confirms the applicant’s suitability for the degree course
*Applicants without an undergraduate degree can instead take an aptitude test to demonstrate they possess the requisite intellectual and technical skills and corresponding professional expertise.
