Curriculum Overview

The CEMS MIM curriculum is designed to take your abilities to the next level after completing one of Esade’s Masters in Management programs.

CEMS MIM immerses you in a demanding syllabus that comprises two semesters of rigorous academic study (one at Esade and one as an exchange student at one of the CEMS partner schools across the globe), plus an 8-week international internship.  During the second semester, you’ll have the chance to engage with one of the program’s highlights: The Business Project. You’ll take on the role of consultant and tackle a real business problem posed by a leading company.

The CEMS Master’s in International Management (CEMS MIM) is an internationally recognized academic qualification awarded jointly by the CEMS Global Alliance and Esade Business School. As a global credential, it complements Esade’s official degree programs, although it is not accredited by the Spanish Ministry of Education.

Wisdom Pill: “Cross-cultural Management” by Prof. Dr. Daniela Noethen

“Cross-Cultural Differences” by Dr. Daniela Noethen, Academic Director of the MSc in International Management This class gives you a first-hand impression of what it means to study at ESADE and experience a student-focused, interactive learning approach. Moreover, with ESADE being such a diverse and multi-cultural learning environment, the class will give you an introduction to the meaning and importance of culture, its influence on our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, in and outside of organizations. You will get a glimpse of the vast differences that exist between different cultures and how they affect management practices. Biography: Daniela Noethen holds a PhD in Business Administration (Jacobs University Bremen, Germany) as well as a Diploma in Psychology (bachelor plus master, University of Bonn, Germany), and spent a year studying Psychology at the University of British Columbia (Canada). Her research focuses on global mobility and expatriation, looking at both the management of expatriates and the expatriate experience. Studying traditional corporate expatriates sent on temporary assignments, their selection, knowledge transfer and performance, as well as other forms of expatriation and global mobility (e.g., split family expatriation or expatriates who decide to stay), she contributes to the growing knowledge base on how to manage employees and make important career and family decisions in a globalized world.
