“Globalising Europe” allows participants to take a panoramic view of international business European-style while considering the process of globalization from a world perspective. The programme is aimed at master level students in management who are interested in developing their critical thinking skills especially in the context of corporate strategy. Partnering with international firms located in the south of France who provide problem-solving tasks to stimulate creativity, the programme takes an action-research approach so that our corporate partners and students benefit from a completely unique experience in sharing views on international business strategy in the 21st century. Drawing from key reading and cases plus field trips and corporate interviews, the programme also provides a deep dive into European Community issues for businesses, family businesses in Europe and business models common to Western European nations."
— Professor Anne E. Witte
