MScom from 2007 with a more flexible format

The part-time postgraduate master's program "Executive Master of Science in Communications Management" (MScom) at the University of Lugano will become more flexible from 2007. The program will be adapted to the changing requirements of participants and the current needs of companies. Until now, participants in the MScom program had to complete a four-and-a-half-day teaching block once a month. From January 2007, these blocks will take place every two months, but will last seven days. The previous 21-month program comprised 13 blocks in Lugano. The new format, on the other hand, provides for only seven modules in Lugano, one of which will be attended by participants from the "Master in Corporate Communications" (MCC) course at Copenhagen Business School. In addition, the MScom participants will attend a teaching block of the MCC in Copenhagen. MScom and MCC participants will also spend a two-week study visit together at the Anderson School of Business at UCLA, Los Angeles (California). The changes will come into effect in January 2007 with the start of the 9th MScom year.
