This master’s is structured over two years, balancing face-to-face intensive learning sessions with flexible, autonomous study.

Recognising the demands on working professionals, the programme concentrates in-person hours into 3 intensive weeks throughout the first academic year (1 and half weeks in the first semester and 1 and half weeks in the second semester), allowing students to immerse themselves in a focused, collaborative learning environment with minimal disruption to their work lives. These intensive periods are interspersed with independent study supported by a custom-built electronic platform, enabling students to complete assignments, engage with resources, and seek support remotely.

The second year is dedicated to writing the dissertation or internship report and additional optional training (e.g. seminars, thematic workshops, etc.).

Students will benefit from a learning schedule that is both rigorous and adaptable. The structured intensive sessions and the flexible, independent study provide a well-rounded educational experience that prioritises in-depth exploration of topics and practical application within a professional context.
