The eMBA (100 ECTS) can be completed in about 2,5 - 3 years as a part-time study programme alongside work but it’s possible to take a break between the modules. The study days are always during the week-days. We’ve received good feedback from the participant’s employers that all our assignments are tailored to the companies’ needs so the study time is very profitable for the company as well.
