The is a young, vibrant international institution focused on changing what management education is all about in order to develop the entrepreneurial leaders needed in fast-moving economies, such as Brazil, Russia, India and China. Founded by Russian and international leading businesses who believe that management education will have to be fundamentally different to meet the needs of today’s market and business in the future, SKOLKOVO has created an MBA Programme based on a unique mix of three dimensions:
SKOLKOVO breeds a generation of leaders who are effective agents of change, who see potential where others see only challenges and difficulties.
SKOLKOVO paves the way for entrepreneurial leaders to create success in fast-moving economies, such as Brazil, China, India and Russia.
Instead of the approach at traditional schools, where the emphasis is on theory over practice, at SKOLKOVO 2\3 of programme time will be spent on “learning-by-doing" on 5 real projects in 4 countries.
The SKOLKOVO MBA is a 12-month full-time programme which consists of 4 months of fundamental module and 8 months of real projects in China, the US, Russia and India. The last module called start up module provides an opportunity to build own business and get financed from SKOLKOVO Business Incubator.
We are far more interested in applicants' soft skills and motivation rather than in papers and tests' verification. SKOLKOVO MBA admission process is completely different from all that traditional schools offer and encourages applicants to show leadership and entrepreneurship skills.
