– To offer possibilities to students who wish to either take the internship and professional track or the research track.
-To acquire a trans-national perspective. The Programme will have an impact on the continuous formation of the executive and management board of business enterprises. The pertinent benefits will optimize business results, the opening up of companies to the emerging markets, and the maximization of competitive advantages.
-To focus on a problem-based approach developed by these educational institutions rather than on a traditional methodology.
