A new MBA with a specialist stream in Managing International Organisations has been designed by The University of Stellenbosch Business School (USB) in partnership with the United Nations System Staff College (UNSSC).
The programme benefits from UNSSC’s experience and a network of senior UN leaders contributing to the delivery of the modules and serving as research supervisors.
This stream has been designed to equip managers and leaders with the tools, theories and frameworks to lead successfully in a complex global environment. The programme allows insight into organisations, such as the United Nations, which play a fundamental role in shaping international business, policies, development and society.
Who should enrol?
- Managers from the private sector who aspire to work for international development organisations
- Managers who want to fast-track their careers in an international organisation
- Professionals who want to transition to working in multinational for-profit organisations
- UN staff who want to enhance their managerial strengths within an international organisation, development agency or, specifically, the UN system
Programme format
- Modular– attend on-campus study blocks spread over time
- Blended– join the class in real time on any internet-linked device from anywhere in the world
Both the modular and blended learning formats run over 2 years and both allow students to study while they work. Students specialise in Managing International Organisations during their second year of enrolment. The stream-specific modules will enable you to integrate and apply your learning from the MBA core modules within the context of international organisations.
