Webster University Geneva

What you'll study

The curriculum covers core managerial hard and soft skills and a range of business disciplines. Course content referenced in the programme includes:

• Foundation courses such as Value Creation and Marketing Analysis and Business Planning
• Core subjects including The Financial Value of Capital Projects and Information Support for Decision Making
• Applied, case-based modules such as Cases in Value Creation and the Walker Consulting Project
• Subject areas taught by research faculty and practitioner-instructors, for example organizational behavior, behavioral finance, strategic management and leadership

Entry requirements

The Geneva campus operates a rolling admissions process with multiple annual start dates; decisions are issued on a rolling basis within approximately 10 days to two weeks after all documentation is received. Applicants who require a Swiss student visa should complete admissions at least two months before their intended start date; Webster can advise if the timeline is shorter. Admitted students may be able to defer to the next entry term if visa timing requires it.

Career prospects

The programme prepares graduates for roles across international business sectors by combining strategic theory and practical application. Webster highlights employment of MBA alumni at organizations such as UBS, Credit Suisse, PwC, Nestle, Thomson Reuters, Medtronic, ST Microelectronics, Cargill International, Caterpillar, Logitech Europe, Orange, WHO, Richemont, Julius Baer & Co and Deutsche Bank. Graduates typically pursue careers in management consulting, marketing, finance, operations, leadership roles in global organisations, entrepreneurship or start-up ventures.

Scholarships & funding angle

Webster directs prospective students to information about financial aid and scholarships and provides admissions and career-staff support to assist with planning. Approximately half of master’s students undertake an internship, and campus services include academic advising, a Career Services office and a Learning Resources Center that can help students identify funding options and career development opportunities.
