MBA Expertise Track

The MBA is a generalist management programme, but at MSM you can choose from different Expertise Tracks (specialisations) to fully align your MBA with your career ambitions, or to challenge yourself in new and unexplored areas.

Benefit from our global community and enjoy unlimited network opportunities
The 2-week expertise track module (specialisation phase) takes place each year in June/July. MSM organises residential expertise track (specialisation) weeks in Maastricht bringing together all students from the MSM on-campus MBA programmes, the online MBA (optional) and participants from MSM’s Global Partner Network to jointly follow the expertise track (specialisation) courses. This provides you with a unique opportunity to interact with more students coming from all corners of the world and from a diverse range of professional backgrounds. An ideal chance to further expand your network.

Deepen your knowledge through the interactive format
The two interactive courses that dive deeper into specific topics will give you a competitive edge in your career. Company visits, guest lectures, case studies and group discussions are all part of the interactive set-up of these courses to ensure maximum application of knowledge.

The courses of the expertise tracks (specialisations) take place every year in June/July. Currently, the following expertise tracks (specialisations) are available

• Entrepreneurship
