Program description

This programme is intended for students who did not pursue a production-based specialisation at the undergraduate level, and while they may have studied filmmaking or had previous work-related experience in the topics, this is neither an expectation nor a prerequisite. While always changing and evolving due to the arrival of digital technologies, the film and entertainment industries are the up and coming areas of a society that is rapidly moving towards a work-less, create-and-enjoy-more civilization.

The curriculum stresses practise (based on theory), which is supported by live business projects and engages students through practice-based assessment assignments - at graduation, students should be fully functional in the industry's financing, marketing, and distribution domains.

The MBA Film Production degree is a postgraduate programme of study that can be completed in one year (full-time) or part-time over two to three years. The degree includes a taught component that prepares students for an extended dissertation or film industry project.

About the university

The idea of a European School of Economics is groundbreaking in the world of academia. While a solid grounding in economics, management, marketing, and finance is essential for success at a college of international business like ESE, that's not all you'll learn there. Modern higher education institutions should help each student grow as a person by teaching them a set of essential principles that will help them become the leaders of tomorrow.

The European School of Economics boasts a faculty with expertise ranging from corporate finance and sociology to the administration of luxury brands.

In order to help children succeed in school and in their careers, teachers and mentors work with them from the very beginning to pinpoint their individual strengths and passions. The ESE faculty offer our bachelor's, master's, MBA, and certificate programmes to students with a uniquely personalized set of learning experiences, drawing on their extensive real-world experience in their respective fields.

Our locations

ESE students will have the rare opportunity to study at any of the five ESE campuses (London, Milan, Florence, Rome, and Madrid) and to transfer between campuses on a semester-by-semester or year-by-year basis, allowing them to take the same courses in a variety of international settings and learn about different cultures.
