Strategy

Find your strategic link to success!

The goal of the intensive two-year program is to train and develop experts in strategy, prepared to thrive in - and lead – firms through complex business environments. Our aim is to help you to develop capabilities that guide you to success in corporate strategy, along with any position that requires a deep understanding of business and organizations.

The Master’s program in Strategy is in a unique position to provide these capabilities, as it combines the competences and contacts of two schools within Aalto University: the School of Economics and the School of Science. Combining the knowledge of two Aalto schools, the program provides courses in the fields of strategy, innovation and technology management, international business, business venturing, marketing management, and finance. The program participants of the two schools share part of their study path, yet earn different degrees: the degrees of M.Sc. (Econ.& Bus. Admin) and M.Sc. (Tech.), respectively. The program brings together highly-qualified students, with various technical and business backgrounds and from multiple cultures.

Davide Traverso_strategy.JPG”There are many advantages to studying in Finland, starting from the quality of life which is really high. The academic environment at the School of Science is relaxed yet competent and facilities and staff are really good and efficient. Also student life is a lot of fun with many parties and a strong communal spirit. After I graduate next year, I am going to look for offers around in the Finnish job market, especially in small-medium companies.” (Davide Traverso, Strategy student from Italy)
