While traditional master's programs are often focused on a specific subject area, an MBA program is specifically aimed at leadership skills, strategic thinking, and management know-how. The Opresnik Business School (OBS) offers a part-time, 100% online MBA program — ideal for anyone who is already in working life and wants to develop in a practical way.
A classic master's degree is usually aimed at first-degree graduates who want to delve deeper into their subject area. The MBA, on the other hand, appeals primarily to experienced professionals who want to qualify for managerial tasks — regardless of their original field of study. Career changers also benefit from the interdisciplinary approach of MBA studies.
Another difference lies in the study structure: While a master's degree is often heavily theory-driven, an MBA provides practical management skills that can be applied directly in everyday working life.
“An MBA is not a substitute for a master's degree — but a springboard for the next career step. ”
The programs also differ when it comes to admission: A master's degree usually requires a suitable bachelor's degree. With the OBS MBA program, on the other hand, well-founded professional experience is also sufficient — even without an academic degree. Anyone who has worked in a managerial or specialized role for at least two years can qualify.
