Career Accelerator Program
The reasons for getting an MBA are as varied and diverse as the career histories of our MBA students themselves. What they all have in common, however, is that by completing an MBA, they want to set themselves apart from others and take their careers to the next level. To meet these needs, the WU Executive Academy has now overhauled its previous career development services for MBA/LL.M. students and reorganized them into the new Career Accelerator Program. Based on state-of-the-art scientific findings, the new service portfolio focuses on the three key principles of success in career development: know-why, know-how, and know-who.
