The Offshore Wind Energy MBA is an extra-occupational education programme, aimed at professionals from the offshore wind industry, who wish to develop their managerial skills. The accredited programme is offered jointly by the University of Applied Sciences Bremerhaven and the Business Academy South West in Esbjerg. Consequently, graduates will be awarded an official MBA degree from both universities, i.e. a joint degree. The nine modules are offered in Esbjerg, Bremerhaven and other cities across the North Sea region.   

Both academic and business-oriented teaching 

Each module of the programme is twofold-oriented: while the first phase is devoted to studying current academic literature, the second phase will give students the opportunity to apply what they have learned in a case study. A case study may be a problem or a question from every-day business life in the offshore industry (e.g. concerning investment, safety issues etc.). Moreover, the contents of the modules are developed in close cooperation with adivsory boards in Denmark, Germany and the Netherlands: in those advisory boards, both the large players in the offshore wind sector as well as medium sized companies are represented. Thus, the MBA caters the specific needs of the offshore wind industry by combining new research with every-day business challenges and - from a student perspective - innovative teaching methods. 

International dimension

All modules are conducted in English, by professors with international experience as well as guest lecturers with profound industry and leadership experience. The unique partnership between Denmark, Belgium, Germany, and the Netherlands enables an international knowledge exchange of high standards.
