Your language options
The Master in Management can be carried out in English or a bilingual English-Spanish option. It’s most suitable for people who are proficient in both languages.
Regardless of your native language, this challenge will add both personal and professional value to your profile.By choosing the bilingual option, you will start the first two core periods in Spanish and finish the last two periods in English.
And don’t worry if you’re naturally stronger in one language. We offer English and Spanish classes throughout the program so that you can sharpen your skills alongside your studies. You’ll also have access to Busuu—the most comprehensive language-learning social network in the world.
The Benefits
-
Boost your career
Spanish and English are two of the world’s leading business languages. While English is the fastest-spreading language in human history, Spanish is the language of the fastest-growing American market segment. Not only will you graduate from the program with a strong grasp of both, but you’ll have a profound understanding of how the business world works in both contexts.
What’s more, some of the world's leading multinationals such as Google and BBVA require their employees to be bilingual. In fact, according to a report by the New American Economy, the demand for bilingual professionals more than doubled between 2010 and 2015.
In certain circumstances, bilingual professionals can earn up to 20% more than their monolingual peers.
-
Broaden your geographical scope
Beyond opening doors to a range of companies and roles, a bilingual degree makes it easier to live and work in many different fields and countries after you graduate. If you’re excited to experience new cultures, this can be a fantastic way to help you see the world.
And as an integral player in today’s hyper-connected generation, your digital expertise will help you enhance the reach of your global connections—and open the door to myriad job opportunities in different parts of the world. -
Expand your international network
We’re living in an increasingly globalized society, and it’s inevitable that the future world of work will be defined by cultural diversity. Each year, the Master in Management’s cohort is filled with 60+ different nationalities. You’ll have plenty of opportunities to network through the program’s small work groups that rotate every term. And by switching between English and Spanish classes, you’ll interact with more people and make key contacts in both languages. What’s more, exchanging ideas with your international peers provides key skills to deal with diverse teams throughout your career. In today’s ultra-connected world, there’s never been a better time to embrace cultural diversity and celebrate the differences that unite us.
-
Sharpen your business vocabulary
Not only will the bilingual Master in Management give you a 360-degree view of the business world, but you’ll experience its inner workings from within both the English- and Spanish-speaking markets. And don’t forget—enriching your business vocabulary in two languages is guaranteed to help you stand out from the competition. Additionally, thanks to your dual business lingo, you’ll appear more trustworthy to international clients and foreign associates who can expose you to career-boosting networks.
-
Exercise your brain
And the benefits aren’t limited to the professional sphere. Being proficient in two languages is like a constant workout for your brain. According to Fluentu, bilingualism can improve problem-solving, multitasking and decision-making skills- competencies that are invaluable in a business setting.This is mainly because when you speak more than one language, you’re constantly diving into a wide pool of vocabulary and eliminating irrelevant words that don’t serve the right purpose. This will give you an edge over your non-bilingual peers, making you an agile and empathetic leader, better able to understand complex business contexts.
In three studies involving 145 bilingual and 126 monolingual individuals, results showed that bilingual participants were quicker when it came to switching between different tasks.
Whatever you do, make sure you use your language skills to open up more opportunities. While proficiency in both languages is required to take part in the bilingual Master in Management, we offer Spanish and English lessons to all participants so that you can improve your language skills alongside your studies. Additionally, students of the bilingual Master in Management program also have access to Bussu, the world’s most complete language-learning social network.
DIVE INTO OUR TRACKS & ELECTIVES
Your future may lie in the digital world or it could take root in international business. Then again, maybe you feel drawn to the financial sector instead. Or you think digital marketing might be the area you choose to drive success. Whatever your chosen journey, the Master in Management can give you the tools and sector insights to kick start the career of your dreams.
