The Master of Business Administration (MBA) (English, Non-Thesis) at BAU International is designed to give students a comprehensive and modern education in business administration and management. The curriculum balances core business disciplines including leadership, strategy, finance, marketing, and human resources, underpinned by real-world applications. Over 18 months, students complete a set of compulsory and elective courses, culminating in a term project instead of a thesis. The program specifically develops analysis, problem-solving, critical and creative thinking, and ethical leadership skills, enabling graduates to excel in both national and international organizational contexts. Students are trained to be proactive in managing change, risk, and business processes, and the program’s international orientation supports ambitions in global business and diverse sectors. Career prospects for graduates include mid- to senior-level managerial positions, consulting, entrepreneurship, project management, and further academic opportunities, supported by BAU’s extensive alumni network and industry partnerships[4].
