The masterclasses are offered as a part of the PhD in International Business and Strategy at the Henley Business School, University of Reading (UK), but are open to all PhD students, post-doctoral and early career researchers. Besides offering world-class training on conceptual issues and current debates in a particular aspect of IB, they provide networking opportunities and allow developing global partnerships.

 

The number of participants is strictly limited to 30 students per masterclass.

 

Participants can either attend as formally enrolled students or as non-enrolled attendees. The first option will provide formal recognition in the form of credits. Participants will be awarded 10 credits per module, an equivalent of 5 ECTS credits, upon the positive evaluation of coursework and payment of a tuition fee (£230 for Home/EU students and £460 for Overseas students per module). The second option is free of tuition charges and will be non-credit bearing (participants will only receive a certificate of attendance). 

 

A limited number of competitive scholarships is generously offered from the Alan Rugman Memorial Fund.
