For a long time, we support the education of people who cannot afford to finance an MBA study by themselves. So far, we have provided scholarships to 18 disabled students, in a total amount exceeding 2.5 million crowns.
The first wave of applications for the study year starting in October 2020, where we provided a total of 6 scholarship places for MBA studies, has already been completed.
There is currently no other scholarship program listed.
Keep an eye on our website for more information.
————————————————————————————
Scholars will be able to study management, leadership, strategic or project management, personal development and other managerial and professional disciplines according to their needs. The teaching principle is primarily individual consultations with lecturers, during which students solve specific matters from their practice. Scholarship recipients will thus have the opportunity to continuously consult the real problems of their company with experts on the given issue, and under their guidance to prepare a proposal for their solution for each study module in the form of a practically oriented semester work, and at the end of the entire study, a comprehensive diploma thesis, which is a comprehensive strategic document. Thanks to this, they can successfully restart their business, or use their MBA studies to gain better employment on the labor market, should they decide not to continue in business.
