PROGRAM STRUCTURE & CURRICULUM
This is a one-year executive program, divided into two academic semesters. Upon successful completion of both semesters, students are required to complete a final thesis or applied project that demonstrates their ability to integrate theoretical knowledge with practical expertise in finance and wealth management.
The program is taught by leading professionals from Switzerland and Europe, including experienced bankers, compliance officers, financial analysts, and legal experts. Faculty includes practitioners from institutions such as the United Nations, the World Intellectual Property Organization, and major private banks, offering students direct insight into the workings of global financial systems. Through this approach, students benefit from both academic rigor and hands-on learning, preparing them for leadership roles in international finance, asset management, and regulatory environments.
The curriculum is subject to modifications. Below is an overview of the course structure, broken down by semester.
Foreign Languages
Mastering at least one foreign language is essential for today’s global professionals. At our institution, one language is mandatory and included in the core program, while additional languages may be taken for an extra fee.
Students may choose to study English, French, or German, with intensive instruction delivered by native-speaking instructors using methods specifically developed for international professionals.
Our small-group classes ensure personalized attention and create an optimal environment for effective learning.
Thanks to our structured approach, students are well-prepared to succeed in international language certification exams—often without the need for additional preparation.
Additional language training beyond the required course is available upon request.
Students study English intensively in Geneva using advanced methods developed specifically for international legal and business professionals. Courses are led by experienced language instructors and professors from the Swiss School. Learners progress to C1/C2 levels, and those with a high starting level may join advanced groups alongside native speakers.
This professional-oriented course covers legal terminology, business writing, and key concepts in international business law. It also includes a business correspondence component, helping students develop the practical communication skills required for international legal and corporate environments.
French is essential for students pursuing careers in international law or diplomacy. As one of the official languages of the United Nations, the EU, and many international organizations, French provides key advantages in global legal and political spheres. Courses are tailored to develop strong legal and formal communication skills.
The German course is designed for international students seeking a professional command of the language. Instruction combines the proven strengths of classical methods with modern, practice-oriented materials. Emphasis is placed on real-world communication skills useful in legal, diplomatic, and business contexts across German-speaking countries.
