Modular Executive MBA

The Modular Executive MBA is a flexible program focused on your leadership and personal development. You can choose from three specializations. This makes this MBA even more relevant to you.

With the Modular Executive MBA, you decide the pace and program. Will you go for the full MBA and the MBA title (Accreditation: AMBA: London, United Kingdom & EQUIS: Brussels, Belgium. These accreditations are the legal basis for granting the degree/title Master of Business Administration.)? Or follow one or more modules for a quick upgrade of your knowledge? It's up to you. Download the brochure for more information on how the Modular Executive MBA program works.

You choose from three specializations. This way, the program is specifically tailored to the field that best fits your work and ambitions; Business & IT, Business & Sustainable Transitions or Public & Private. You will bring your own cases and work on them together with fellow participants and lecturers.

With the Modular Executive MBA you can put together your own MBA. Stack modules from the specialization of your choice for a full MBA title or pick a single module. Depending on your interest, time investment and ambition you can opt for: 

  • the complete MBA program (consisting of at least 2 electives, 6 core modules, the international study trip and the MBA thesis);
  • one or more separate modules based on your interest.

Participants and alumni discussing Modular Executive MBA

"'Nyenrode ensures that the MBA participants are up to date'."

Meggi Schuiling-Otten Alumna MBA

'The good thing about the MBA programme at Nyenrode is that you get to know very different fields of expertise and gain insight into the latest trends. Nyenrode ensures that the MBA participants are up to date'.

"I have had many valuable lessons at Nyenrode. Daring to make yourself vulnerable and taking the risk to fail is one of them."

Stephen Garcia Participant MBA

''I have had many valuable lessons and experiences at Nyenrode. If I have to choose something it is that you dare to make yourself vulnerable and that this is about having the courage to show yourself, to try things and to take the risk of failing. In the module Leadership and Cooperation I learned a lot about this and about myself and I also got tools to work with it".

"This MBA has brought me an incredible bucket of knowledge, insights and most importantly a network of friends and relationships."

Jos Tholen Alumnus MBA

I compared 4 masters and Nyenrode was the most pragmatic and fits my practice best. In addition, the modular structure appealed to me greatly, because I only live once and work-life balance (with a wife and 2 young kids) is important.

"The module Future Business has helped me tremendously to think from the different interests of stakeholders."

Thea Freudenberger Participant Modular Executive MBA in Public & Private

"The study is easy to combine with work and home. Of course it's a trade-off, but I also get a lot of energy from it. Particularly because of the many similarities with your work, you can often apply it immediately. It has helped me enormously to think from the different interests of stakeholders. That's how you create a common picture of the future in dialogue with each other."
