No requirement to be online at specific times

Life is busy. Meetings, travel, and family commitments don’t always fit a fixed timetable. This MBA respects that reality by not requiring your online presence at specific times and dates. Engage with lectures, readings, and discussions when it works for you.

This flexibility empowers you to learn consistently—whether early morning before your commute, between client calls, or in the evenings—without missing out on collaboration or academic depth. Your schedule, your pace, your progress.

Study anywhere—even on the move—with a mobile app and offline access

From the Copenhagen Metro to long-haul flights, learning travels with you. Our mobile app allows you to download study materials and watch lectures offline, so you can keep momentum wherever life takes you. Your MBA becomes a companion to your day-to-day, not a constraint.

Whether you’re working from a co-working space in Ørestad, checking in from a client site, or catching up during a weekend away, your classroom fits in your pocket. Stay productive and inspired—anytime, anywhere in the world.

Open-book assessments that mirror real executive practice

Instead of classical question/answer exams, you’ll demonstrate your mastery through open-book assessments. These assignments prioritise analysis, synthesis, and application—much like the decisions leaders make in real organisations—encouraging you to use frameworks, literature, and data to justify your recommendations.

This approach rewards critical thinking over memorisation and supports deeper learning. You’ll develop the habit of grounding your choices in evidence and best practice—a discipline that strengthens your leadership credibility in complex, fast-evolving contexts.

Guided by faculty with world-class academic pedigrees

Learn from tutors and faculty who graduated from renowned institutions such as Oxford, Harvard, EPFL, the University of Basel, and Washington University in St. Louis. Their experience bridges research excellence and practical leadership, bringing you perspectives that are both academically rigorous and immediately useful.

Expect constructive feedback, thoughtful guidance, and mentorship that help you sharpen your strategic thinking. You’ll be challenged to explore new angles, stretch your capabilities, and translate advanced concepts into impactful action.

Join a diverse cohort representing over 130 countries. You’ll collaborate with peers across sectors and regions, broadening your worldview and building a network that spans industries and time zones.

Why this MBA makes sense from Copenhagen

Lead the green transition from one of the world’s most sustainability-driven capitals. With internationally applicable strategy and leadership tools, you can address real challenges in Denmark’s key sectors—renewable energy, circular economy, smart mobility, and sustainable urban development—while learning online from your Copenhagen base. The programme equips you to frame problems systemically, orchestrate change across stakeholders, and measure sustainable value creation—skills that resonate across Nordic and global contexts.

Copenhagen’s maritime and logistics ecosystem connects Europe to the world. As supply chains are reimagined for resilience and responsibility, organisations demand leaders who can integrate sustainability with operations, finance, and risk. Your MBA will help you navigate regulations, translate ESG goals into executable plans, and build cross-functional buy-in—capabilities that matter from port strategy to last-mile innovation.

Denmark’s life sciences, tech, and design communities are redefining health, digital services, and customer experience with a strong ethical compass. From responsible AI to inclusive product design and low-carbon manufacturing, the city offers endless opportunities to apply leadership and sustainability thinking. You’ll be ready to guide teams through transformation, align purpose with performance, and communicate impact credibly to boards, partners, and society.

Study with purpose. Lead with confidence.

With the MBA Leadership and Sustainability, you’ll develop the strategic clarity, change leadership, and sustainability literacy to create value that lasts—professionally, socially, and environmentally. Learn online, apply immediately, and graduate with a British degree that travels with your ambitions.
