Bachelor programmes

Jönköping International Business School offers four bachelor-degree programmes. They are all designed for three years of full-time studies (180 credits), delivered on-campus, and taught entirely in English. Successful high school graduation is a prerequisite to qualify for admittance, and there are specific language requirements to be met. It should be noted that there is competition for places in all programmes.

Admission to one of these bachelor programmes implies an opportunity to study one semester abroad at one of JIBS' many partner universities worldwide (for students who qualify).

Master programmes

The master's programmes at JIBS draw upon our research excellence. Each programme is designed to build on your previous bachelor's education and provide in-depth knowledge and competence in a defined area of high relevance to business and society. Studies at the master level give you a thorough academic specialisation.

JIBS offers one-year (60 credits) as well as two-year (120 credits) master programmes.

One benefit of the one-year programmes is that they are short and focused but still provide you with a more advanced academic experience (ending with a 15-credit thesis). A benefit of the 2-year programmes is that you can take elective credits, study abroad, or do an internship (depending on the programme). A two-year master-degree also makes you better prepared to take on cutting-edge research and doctoral studies in a particular subject area (ending with a 30-credit thesis).
