These studies provide students with overall development – including a better understanding of the modern economy, operating on the EU single market and functioning in conditions of globalisation.

What alumni say about us
Agnieszka, a graduate of 2016
Choosing the IMX studies was one of the most critical decisions. I could experience cultural differences and see how they translate to the organisation of courses and work, which was possible thanks to traineeships in two countries. I gained various experiences which shaped me and broadened my horizons. I learned how to work with others, organise time and make an effort to achieve goals. At the same time, I gained knowledge that helped me better understand international corporations' processes and quickly engage in work. It is worth mentioning the German language, which opens many job opportunities. My business German level is high after my ESB studies, allowing me to communicate efficiently.
Sebastian, a graduate of 2018
I heard about the International Management Double Degree programme by accident. The possibility of obtaining a B.A. double diploma, studying at one of the best business schools in Germany and years spent in this country earlier made me begin these studies, which turned out to be a school of life for me. They allowed me to gain practical knowledge from experts and experience during traineeships at international companies and taught me self-discipline, independence and openness to work with people worldwide. Studies at the ESB Business School were a great adventure and constituted an ideal preparation for a career in an international environment.
