Germany is one of the top destinations chosen by international students for an MBA, especially because the public universities in Germany do not charge tuition fees. A few reasons why you can choose to pursue your MBA in Germany are

• Better course structure: The course structure of an MBA program in Germany is wide, and there are several specialisations to choose from. This will help students choose the course that best suits their interests.

• Flexibility: Germany offers high flexibility for pursuing courses, and students can study MBA both full-time and part-time. This also helps students study at a lesser tuition cost.

• Affordability: As mentioned above, public universities in Germany do not charge tuition fees for their Master’s students, making it affordable to study there. This is especially so because MBA is one of the most expensive programs.

• Research-oriented: MBA programs in Germany are research-oriented, which helps students to improve their decision-making skills.

• Employability: MBA is one of the very few Postgraduate degree programs that have a high demand in the job market.
