First of all, GMBA students can choose from 3 degree pathways: △CEMS MIM (Master in Management), △EBS/ESCP MIM, △regular MBA. Students taking CEMS MIM study overseas for a semester at CEMS Partner Schools in 30 countries, after completing one-year courses at KUBS MBA. EBS/ESCP is a two-year program, during which students spend their first year at KUBS and the other at either EBS, Germany or ESCP, France. Regular MBA can be completed within a year, which will minimize the opportunity cost of taking postgraduate degrees.
On the other hand, AMBA is designed to provide graduates with strong knowledge and skills specialized in the Asian market. AMBA students spend semesters at 3 universities from 3 different countries: Shanghai (Fudan University), Seoul (Korea University), Singapore (National University of Singapore).
