Test drive of the programme International and Corporate Management

Last week more than 50 school students in their last year got a test drive of the programme International and Corporate Management at GSEM. They got a campus tour guided by current students of the programme with a chance to ask any questions on admission, studies, academic mobility, and career prospects. 

The programme faculty gave a presentation about the advantages of studying international management at GSEM UrFU.

The key event of the visit was a role game introducing defferent areas of management science. Participants worked in teams to assess their skills of investment management, had a job interview and got a job offer if they were successful, and held a meeting of the executive board of a big metallurgical plant. 

Thus the students could not only get a taste of what it's like to be a manager, but also determine the competencies required for studying International and Corporate Management.

Informal discussion continued after the official part had been finished. School students, as well as their teachers were very interested to get to know management education at Graduate School of Economics and Management.
