The Master’s for executives and entrepreneurs.

The Berlin Part-Time MBA at the Berlin Professional School (BPS), HWR Berlin, is a part-time Master’s programme designed for executives and entrepreneurs. Over 24 months, you will develop your leadership skills and entrepreneurial mindset in small, internationally diverse cohorts, equipping you to shape your professional future successfully. An interactive learning environment with a strong practical focus, combined with elective modules such as Entrepreneurship and Innovation, Digital Business and Technology Management, or International Management, enables you to broaden and deepen your management expertise. You will learn from experienced business leaders with extensive management expertise. The programme is taught entirely in English.

The Berlin MBA is internationally accredited by the Association of MBAs (AMBA). Through the Double Degree option, you can also earn a second MBA from the prestigious Porto Business School without extending the duration of your studies. You will gain access to one of Europe’s leading business school networks and benefit from personalised career advice and one-to-one coaching provided by the BPS Career Service.

What we as the SIB can say for certain: the part-time MBA of the Berlin Professional School is designed to be taken while working — you study without giving up your job. For many in our community it is the next step after the program: more business depth, leadership know-how and a network for your own venture.

International cooperation

The “Entrepreneurship and Innovation” module in cooperation with Wichita State University (Kansas, USA)

A distinctive feature of the “Entrepreneurship and Innovation” module in the Berlin Part-Time MBA is the Strategic Consulting Project with the Barton School of Business at Wichita State University led by Prof Dr Sven Ripsas. It provides you with valuable insights into innovation processes within start-ups and established companies. Working in international teams alongside MBA students from the USA, you will develop market entry strategies and innovative solutions over several months to address real-world internationalisation challenges faced by start-ups and SMEs, applying your management expertise to strategic business issues in practice. Almost 100 companies have already benefited from the outcomes of this transatlantic collaboration. With a partnership spanning more than 20 years, this collaboration uniquely combines international management practice, intercultural teamwork and live consulting projects.
