Upon completion, students will earn a Masters in Business Administration (MBA) degree in Future Studies for Corporate Strategy. The certificate earned with this MBA will be the equal to the on-campus programs and will have the same high quality academic/practical education we offer on-campus. However, this MBA program differs from on campus programs in terms of value proposition, curriculum and course structure. ‎

Students will have the theoretical framework and background knowledge to take on further management roles in any company, have it be private or public. As a lato senso degree, the MBA is designed to provide practical skills to professionals. If you are interested in pursuing a PhD program, you may wish to consider a stricto sensu master's degree in business or management or other relevant topics instead, as an MBA may not qualify you for PhD programs.‎

This MBA, together with the rest of FIA’s programs, are accredited nationally and internationally, giving you peace of mind when it comes to the validity of your degree. Locally, we’re accredited by the Brazilian National MBA Association (ANAMBA), as well as by the Brazilian Ministry of Education (MEC). Internationally, we’re accredited by the Association of MBAs (AMBA).‎

Yes, you will have several live sessions throughout the MBA, so you can interact and connect with your classmates, professors, and industry experts. However, it is important to note that most of your learning will be done via Coursera’s platform using all the best pedagogical tools for online learning and including several learning materials.‎

You can complete your MBA in up to 4 years.‎

The capstone project is the final deliverable of your MBA. It will be conducted in teams and it will enable you to integrate and apply the concepts and skills you have learned during the MBA program to a business challenge. It is usually either a project to address a strategic issue in a company or a project for the development of a business plan for a startup idea.‎

There is the possibility of using credits from other institutions, but the prospective candidate must submit the syllabi from the courses whose credits they want to use and the transcripts for coordination evaluation. It is important to note that having those credits approved does not mean there will be any discount on the tuition fee.‎

FIA Business School is not offering any scholarship for this MBA program at the moment.‎

We have an open section of our courses “Leadership and Disruption” and “Macroeconomics for Business Management” available for all.‎
