Methodology

Eminently practical; based on teamwork and the case method, both key concepts on our online and face-to-face programmes.

Topics are analyzed through participants’ discussion of real cases and business simulations under the guidance of the professor, who leads and focuses the debate. This methodology enables the identification of the main problems companies have to deal with and develops participants’ ability to take decisions.

Online learning dynamic is based on combining live videoconference sessions and asynchronous discussion forums. This combination guarantees the same quality and excellence shared by all IE Business School Master Programmes.

 

  • Live video conference sessions will take place on Fridays (programme in Spanish) or Saturdays (programme in English). They last 90 minutes and are broadcasted at several different times: 4 pm, 6 pm and 8 pm on Fridays (programme in Spanish); and 9 am, 11 am and 1 pm on Saturdays (programme in English), all of them Madrid time. Professor and participants image and audio are available in real time. Different contents and cases are discussed in each session stimulating class debate. These sessions allow participants to keep a weekly face-to-face contact with the professor and the rest of the class.
  • From Monday to Thursday participants will log onto the virtual campus where sessions are held through discussion forums. These forums will be active 24 hours a day and will be chaired by professors. Participants will join according to their own availability.
  • In specific moments of the programme participants will have the chance to attend presential academic workshops and seminars (2 days). Moreover, participants will be welcome to join the Community Integration Days sessions which have been scheduled in 15 cities around the world, including Madrid, London, New York, Santiago, Johannesburg, Dubai, Moscow, Sydney and Shanghai. These two-day events will allow participants to meet each other and IE alumni, professors and business experts, resulting in an unparalleled opportunity for networking. During the Community Integration Days conferences will be given aimed at increasing participants’ knowledge of each region’s specific corporate traits, including econonomic, social, cultural and industrial aspects.
