Master's Degree Programme in Business and Technology

Business development in global, technology-driven business-to-business markets!

The global business community needs young business professionals with an intercultural mindset and knowledge of the latest technologies. Would you like to be one of them?

The International Master's Degree Programme in Business and Technology focuses on business development in global business-to-business markets. Modern business development often requires close interaction with both customers and suppliers, and therefore industrial marketing and global sourcing strategies are the cornerstones of our programme. In addition to theoretical understanding, the programme emphasizes the practical competencies that young graduates need when managing and developing business processes in international markets.

To help students grow into business development professionals, the programme offers a wide variety of perspectives on management and leadership in an international, technology-driven business environment. The focus on a technology-driven business environment highlights the importance of technology and knowledge management as well as product development.

The business world today needs young professionals who, in addition to good education and social skills, see changes as opportunities. Companies need employees with a global perspective on business development and the ability to see the big picture.

• "Finnish companies operate in global markets and increasingly recognize the value that internationally-minded foreign graduates can provide to their organizations. They offer interesting career opportunities for motivated, hard-working people who can combine their technical competencies with business development. Looking forward to seeing you in Finland and Tampere."
  - Tommi Rasila, Managing Director of Tampere Chamber of Commerce and Industry
