In this specialisation, you can opt for a Master's in Business Administration or a Master's in Economics. The difference lies in the focus of the studies:

International Business: Business Administration. In this specialisation, you will be offered a strategic perspective on ways of gaining a competitive advantage in the global marketplace that aim to create both economic and social value. This suggests adopting a balanced outlook on relations with market and nonmarket stakeholders for a sustainable performance, seeking responsiveness and global efficiencies in marketing efforts, and innovating in emerging and developing markets.

International Business: Economics. In this specialisation you are taught to answer questions such as: What are the consequences of the rise of emerging economies, such as China and India, for the structures and strategies of multinationals? How does the success of a cross border merger or acquisition depend on differences in institutions and cultures between host and parent countries? And what are the effects of trade agreements on the (location) strategies of multinationals?

Waarom aan de Radboud University Nijmegen?

In this programme, you will learn to combine insights from economics and business studies. Within the Business Administration specialisation you will obtain an understanding of institutional and cultural factors that impact international business activity. Within the Economics specialisation you will gain a broad perspective on market and social forces that are relevant for multinationals.

It was the best time in my life!

I was extremely happy with my thesis supervisor who helped a lot in my research. It was a cross-cultural research of shopping motives and consumer values in Russia as antecedents of compulsive buying behaviour. It was organised by our university and The Vrije University of Amsterdam. I enjoyed working in a multinational group of students and experienced researchers. My trip to Moscow for data collection was funded by the University Funds. Thus, I got a chance to do an interesting research.
