Master’s Programme 'Global Business'

In November 2018, students of the Master's programme "Global Bisuness" visited one of the unique plant in Nizhny Novgorod - "Liebherr" company.

In September 2018 Higher School of Economics in Nizhny Novgorod signed the agreement with Johannes Kepler University Linz (JKU) according to which HSE students can not only go on mobility to JKU but have an opportunity to get the second master's degree awarded by the Austrian university. This option is available on a competitive basis to the students who successfully completed the first international year of the Global Business programme.

On October, 8 the master’s programme opening ceremony was held for all the participating students and guests. This year the international group of students consists of 24 young ambitious people from Russia, Austria, Italy, India, Pakistan, Egypt, and France.

HSE has topped the list of universities in the Russian Academic Excellence Project 5-100 once again, having been ranked in 13 subjects and 3 subject areas in the QS World University Rankings. The university has entered the top 100 in ‘Sociology’ and ‘Political and International Studies’ categories, as well as the top 100 in ‘Social Sciences and Management’. 

We sat down to talk to our international student from India how he made the decision to apply for the Global Business master's programme, what the process was like and what he expects to achieve after graduation.

On November 15, international student admissions for undergraduate and Master’s programmes opened. This year, prospective students can apply to two programmes simultaneously. They’ll be able to track the application process online in their personal profile on the HSE website where they will receive notifications on the stages of their application’s review and decisions by the admissions committee. The documents for visa invitation can also be submitted there.

A recent Financial Times ranking has placed the joint Master’s degree program in Global Business among the top graduate degree programs worldwide.

During the last company this year visit Global Business students paid a visit to the DHL branch in Bergamo, Italy. As usual we asked one of our students to share their thoughts afterwards.
