International field trips

The international field trips are our way to enhance your learning and global outlook. A fundamental part of your education is the value of different perspectives. First-hand experience of diverse markets and applying theories and models in a variety of contexts is an essential part of the learning. During our campus weeks in Singapore and Silicon Valley you are given courses tailor-made for the SSE MBA Executive Format and we combine in-class sessions with company visits.

Please note that our international field trips may be located in areas and/or countries that require permits or visas in order to enter. Since our participants come from many different countries it is solely the participant’s responsibility to find out what is required in their specific case, and if necessary, to apply for and to undertake any actions needed in order to obtain such permits or visas.
