Full-time or Part-time
But there is only one MIB Trieste MBA: same faculty, same curriculum, same MBA. The learning is equal across the two MBA formats, and you can choose your own pace to complete it.
Same passion, motivation, responsibility and active participation are required.
- The 12-months full-time option is intense and fast-paced. Only 8 months of on-campus or online attendance are expected, followed by on the field experiences in collaboration with partner companies.
- Choosing the MBA part-time option, you customize your timeline and your course line-up over 2 years.
For those studying online, courses are synchronous (live) and run in parallel with the on-campus cohort. However, there is the possibility of following up to 30% of the sessions on-demand (recorded).
The MBA Curriculum explores 5 subject areas.

After the graduation in Economics and a PhD, I have worked for 4 years in an Italian bank.
I decided to attend the MBA to change my professional path. It was an exceptional year for me, a real turnaround phase.
I have improved my technical and managerial skills and I got in touch with big Groups, keen to employ open minded professionals.
I was selected by Generali Group as financial analyst and I managed several assignments abroad.
Currently I am Deputy CFO of Assicurazioni Generali S.p.A. – Luxembourg branch, a business unit which helps big multinationals (Coca-Cola, Apple, Amazon, DHL and many more) to grant insurance benefits to their workforce all over the world.
