“The Global Innovation Management specialisation helped me see innovation as a tool for adaptation and growth in today's increasingly competitive market. It was very valuable seeing how different companies in Bangalore leveraged innovation.”
Manuel Pantin, Venezuela
“The Customer Experience & Multichannel Management specialisation helped me understand that service and product providers must capitalise on customer needs to decrease risk and focus on real needs. Hong Kong was the perfect place to explore how companies anticipate and take care of the small details that customers appreciate.”

Diego Lopez, Colombia
“In the Structured Finance & Energy specialisation, I learned about concepts that could be applied to any industry like the importance of well-informed investment decisions. What I learned could turn a business meeting around.”
Carmen Wang, China
“I chose the Global Innovation Management specialisation because innovation is the future for a developing country like mine. Understanding innovation helped me have a better vision of the Chinese market and my future career path.”
International MBA alumna Merve Kucuker shares her experience in EADA. Before the MBA, Merve had experience in Unilever and L'Oréal, and the MBA helped her make a career shift to work in the family business after graduation.
Strategic specialisations
With the EADA MBA, you get the best of both worlds: a general business overview followed by the opportunity to choose a strategic specialisation in the third trimester. Your specialisation allows you to focus on a particular area of interest and tailor the MBA to your specific background and future goals.
Each specialisation focuses on a core area of growth and includes 140 classroom hours, an international business trip and company visits.
Global Innovation Management
Innovation is about creating products, processes, and organisational models that have a direct impact on the performance of the company, either in terms of increases in turnover (product or service innovations) or improvements in efficiency (process and organisational innovations). Innovation provides a strong competitive advantage and is one of the best ways to speed up the rate-of-change and adaptation in a global environment.
