Courses

Two types of courses are offered: Core Courses and Orientation Courses. Electives can be Core Courses, Orientation Courses or Language Courses. Language Courses are offered each academic year for the undergraduate students at the beginner, intermediate and advanced level.

Requirements

  • 6 Core Courses in Marketing Management

Students can continue with or switch to a full-time or part-time Master program, respectively after or during their Graduate Certificate program.

Intensiveness

  • Depending on their interest in the courses offered, students can opt to complete the program in 3 or 4 quarters. The standard duration is 3 quarters or 9 months.
  • By completing the program in 4 quarters, the program will be slightly less intensive when compared to completing it in 3 quarters (slightly less courses per quarter and slightly less class/study hours per week). The total duration will be 12 months.
  • Depending on their interest, students can also take one or two additional courses in the 4th quarter. The intensiveness of the program will remain the same. The total duration will be 12 months.

Options

The Dual Graduate Certificate program allows students to combine any two Graduate Certificate programs by adding 6 additional courses to their program (i.e. 12 required courses instead of 6 required courses).

(e.g. a Graduate Certificate in Business Studies in combination with a Graduate Certificate in Marketing Management)

The Internship option (*) encourages students to put their skills and knowledge into practice. Several internships are offered by the school's corporate partners. Students are, of course, also free to find an internship on their own, either local or abroad. Upon successful completion of the internship, 2 credits are awarded as a substitute for an elective course.

(*) only available for European students who do not need a student visa to study in Spain and for non-European students who have a valid residency or work permit
