One MBA, Four Technological Specializations
The evolution of companies and the global economy is being driven by ecological and digital transitions. Current challenges such as decarbonization, automation, data reliability, and blockchain-based models are reshaping industries and job landscapes. These transformations require professionals with new knowledge and skills to navigate the changing business landscape effectively.
Our MBA Tech program offers a unique solution to address the professional challenges encountered by graduates with technical backgrounds, including engineers, mathematicians, as well as non-technical professionals such as economists, lawyers, and statisticians. It equips them with the necessary expertise to transition into management roles within today's competitive business environment.
This program is designed so that our students acquire the competences that, according to the report The Future of Work in Europe 2020, prepared by the consulting firm McKinsey & Co., will be required by jobs in the near future: quantitative and statistical analysis ability, project management, technology management and interpersonal skills..
Today, companies need to hire executives capable of motivating diverse, global workforces who are proficient in technology management. Nebrija's Business & Technology School, with this revised and renewed program in 2022, offers its students the possibility of acquiring these competences thanks to the interaction with professionals with long experience in multinationals such as Metlife, Cepsa and IBM.
The approach is theoretical-practical: the classes are eminently practical thanks to the use of the case methodology (Nebrija Business & Technology School uses the cases of Harvard Business School), and the program includes 150 hours of mandatory internships - and specific for each specialty of the program - in any of the companies with which the university has an agreement and among which are Repsol, Everis, Acciona and Iberdrola, among others.
Optionally, we offer our students the opportunity to complete their experience with a stay at UC Berkeley, included in the price of the face-to-face program (Innovation, Technology and Entrepreneurship Program + stay), whose MBA is ranked 12th in the Global MBA ranking prepared by the Financial Times magazine.
The result: professionals prepared to carry out the jobs that, according to the classification made by LinkedIn -Jobs On The Rise 2023- will grow the most in Spain: account executive, sales specialist, head of growth, sustainability consultant, business development manager, customer relationship manager and delivery manager.
