During the first two years of studies, students will gain a broad knowledge of general business management. They will attend introductory courses in management, entrepreneurship, energy resources management, finance, and foreign language courses. The aim of these courses is to stimulate and develop the students’ analytical ability and critical thinking, which are especially important for the management of modern business organizations. During the last two years study, students will select a concentration in "Entrepreneurship and Innovation" or "Energy Resources Management". In the final year of studies, the students’ overall performance will determine whether they will be selected to take part in the internship course or to conduct a thesis under the supervision of professors in the School of Management and Economics.
For the successful completion of the program of studies, students will need to successfully attain the following knowledge:
- General Management: (25) twenty-five courses offered by the two Departments of the School of Management and Economics
- Specialized courses: (8) eight specialized courses are offered for each concentration
- Limited selection courses: these are courses offered by any Department of Cyprus University of Technology and will allow the students to broaden their core scientific field of study. Interesting selections of courses are available from the Department of Communication and Internet Studies, the Department of Environmental Science and Technology and the Department of Multimedia and Graphic Arts, among others. Students can select up to four such courses or combine two courses with the thesis or combine three courses with an internship during the summer months between year three and four.
- English language learning program: includes three English language courses focusing on language requirements of business management.
