One-Year Professional Diploma – Program Summary
The One-Year Professional Diploma in International Business Management is a comprehensive, practice-oriented program designed to equip participants with the knowledge, analytical skills, and strategic mindset required to operate effectively in global business environments.
The program spans 202 academic hours and is structured around 10 integrated modules delivered through live online sessions across the academic year (October to July). Each module builds progressively from foundational global business concepts to advanced strategic decision-making and leadership practices.
Participants explore key areas including:
- Globalization and international business environments

The program emphasizes real-world application, case analysis, critical thinking, and strategic problem-solving. Students are supported through continuous discussions, research tasks, presentations, and guided academic mentoring.
A major component of the diploma is the final research paper (2,500–3,000 words), where participants conduct an in-depth analysis of a real multinational corporation or global business issue. The paper integrates theoretical knowledge with practical insights and concludes with two viva voce sessions for academic defense.
Assessment is based on participation, research activities, presentations, attendance, and the final research project.
Upon successful completion of all academic and assessment requirements, participants are awarded the One-Year Professional Diploma in International Business Management.
