Learning Outcomes

Outcome-Based Learning

Like all degree programs available at Guglielmo Marconi University, the Master program in Business Administration is based on the Outcome-Based Learning model. Outcome-based education aims at enabling students to demonstrate that they “know and are able to do” whatever the outcomes require.

While acquiring in-depth knowledge of finance, management, economics, marketing, operations and strategy, communication and promotion in a global context, students will learn how to use new technologies and tools.

Specifically, at the end of the program students will be able to:

  • understand theories and concepts necessary to manage organisational performance and resource allocation;
  • manage complex situations in businesses and other organisations based on knowledge of both the external and internal organizational context;
  • develop long-term organizational vision and goals;
  • develop strategies to meet organizational goals, based on effective allocation of financial resources;
  • collect critically and use valuable information across different environments and settings;
  • communicate effectively with various stakeholders.

Qualities, Skills and Capabilities

To achieve the program outcomes, students are required to use a wide range of intellectual, practical and personal skills in a mature, balanced, and productive way.
