GBSB Global Business School Speciality : Management
programme: Master of Science (MSc) in Management

The university offers a broad foundation in business administration with a sharp focus on digitalization. The curriculum casts a wide net, touching on essential competencies that prepare students for the intersection of traditional management and modern tech-driven operations.

Certain areas warrant deeper exploration, and learners from an already business-related background may find themselves lacking for more detailed knowledge beyond the surface-level treatment.

Where the program truly shines, however, is in its hands-on case studies. These demand genuine diligence, meticulous research, and scientific analysis, allowing students to engage with real-world scenarios, producing work that bridges theory with practical application. It’s demanding, but the payoff is tangible professional skills you can actually deploy.

Life as an online student here hits the sweet spot between freedom and structure. You’re granted real flexibility to learn on your own terms without being tethered to a physical campus. But the program doesn’t leave you adrift, with its strict deadlines creating a rhythm that keeps you anchored, turning procrastination into something you can’t afford. That pressure works, as it forces prioritization, builds momentum, and makes completion feel achievable rather than endless. The teaching staff proved to be engaged and knowledgeable, ready to guide us through tough concepts and provide meaningful feedback.

My experience is that the university provides a solid launchpad for digitally-minded business professionals, provided you’re willing to go the extra mile on your own initiative where the coursework leaves room.

I really liked how experienced the faculty is and they have been really helpful. The part i disliked the most is administrative task and how long they take to finish. I would like a bit more support in that. The school overall is good and would be a good addition to your CV and career.

I am currently a master’s student in my fourth and final semester, and overall, I truly appreciate the quality of the program. The course content is highly relevant, and the fact that the university is accredited adds strong value to the degree. The professors are supportive, provide meaningful and constructive feedback, and are always available to help. Many of them are also very friendly and make a real effort to explain concepts clearly. Additionally, the availability of recorded videos is extremely helpful for reviewing and better understanding the material.
However, I would like to share a few suggestions for improvement, particularly regarding the VLV platform. It could be made more user-friendly, as some students may miss live session dates since they do not always appear automatically. Introducing a system with push notifications or better visibility for scheduled sessions would greatly improve the experience.
Moreover, the current live sessions are mostly focused on feedback or questions, and with only four sessions per course, they often feel limited and not fully engaging. I would suggest implementing weekly mandatory live sessions for each course, where the content is actively explained. This would create a more interactive learning environment, closer to a real classroom experience.
Finally, the pacing of the courses can sometimes feel quite intense. Covering two chapters per week per course can be overwhelming, especially when the chapters are dense. It would be beneficial to split larger chapters across multiple sessions to allow for better understanding and absorption of the material.

Many times this university felt rushed. The professors are reading off of the slides. Academics gives information at the last minute. And it feels like no one knows how the schools supposed to be run since everything goes back to the Malta campus for confirmation. Its not terrible if ur just looking to have fun in bcn as a student. But if youre looking for a valuable masters degree, look elsewhere.
