MSc International Business with Law: Go Further from Addis Ababa, Ethiopia
Build an international outlook without leaving the city you call home. The MSc International Business with Law, offered online by the University of Salford in exclusive partnership with Robert Kennedy College, brings together business and legal perspectives that you can apply across borders and industries.
Whether you are looking to grow in your current role or explore a new direction, online study gives you room to pursue your ambitions alongside your life in Addis Ababa.
Earn a British Degree with International Recognition
Graduating with a British degree from the University of Salford gives you a qualification that is recognised internationally. It is a way to demonstrate your commitment to advanced study wherever your career takes you.
For professionals whose work crosses markets, combining international business with law offers a valuable perspective. You can develop your understanding of commercial decisions and the legal considerations that shape them while working towards a recognised academic award.
Complete Your Studies 100% Online in as Little as One Year
You can complete the programme entirely online, with no need to relocate from Addis Ababa. If you are ready to make focused progress, it can be completed in as little as one year.
That means you can pursue a master’s degree while remaining close to your work, family and community. The pace you choose can reflect your circumstances, allowing you to turn your ambition into a practical plan.
Study Without Fixed Online Attendance Times
The programme does not require you to be online at specific times and dates. Instead of arranging your life around scheduled online attendance, you can engage with your studies at times that work for you.
That flexibility can be especially useful when professional responsibilities or family commitments change from week to week. Study early, late or between other commitments, while keeping your longer-term goals in view.
Take Your Learning Wherever You Go
Study from Addis Ababa or from anywhere else in the world. If work or travel takes you away from home, your learning can travel with you through the mobile app.
The app lets you download study materials and watch lectures offline. You can use time on the move to keep learning, even when a reliable internet connection is not available.
Show Your Understanding Through Open-Book Assessments
Rather than classical question-and-answer exams, the programme uses open-book assessments. This approach gives you the opportunity to work with relevant materials as you develop and present your responses.
It can be a rewarding way to demonstrate how you think through business and legal questions. The emphasis is on engaging with ideas and applying your learning, not simply recalling information under exam conditions.
Learn with Faculty from Renowned Universities
The programme’s tutors and faculty include graduates of world-renowned universities such as Oxford, Harvard, EPFL, the University of Basel and Washington University in St. Louis. Their academic backgrounds add breadth to your learning experience.
Studying with experienced educators can help you examine familiar challenges from new angles. As you explore international business and law, you can draw on the perspectives they bring to the online classroom.
Join a Truly International Learning Community
Robert Kennedy College has a diverse student base representing more than 130 countries. Learning alongside people with different professional and cultural experiences can broaden the way you consider cross-border decisions.
Its alumni work for international organisations and companies including the United Nations, Google, the ICRC, The World Bank, Microsoft, Intel, Samsung, Tencent, Siemens and Sony. Their varied paths illustrate the global reach of the wider learning community.
Plan Ahead with Interest-Free Instalments
The programme’s fees can be paid in up to 18 monthly interest-free instalments. Spreading payments over time can make it easier to plan your study alongside your regular commitments.
With a clear payment schedule, you can focus on your academic goals and decide how a master’s degree fits into your plans.
Build on the Opportunities Around Addis Ababa
Addis Ababa is a centre for diplomacy and international cooperation, hosting the African Union and the United Nations Economic Commission for Africa. For graduates interested in roles that connect organisations and countries, a grounding in international business and law can support thoughtful engagement with cross-border partnerships, agreements and institutional relationships.
The city is also an important hub for aviation and trade. Professionals working in logistics, transport or businesses connected to regional commerce may find opportunities to apply the programme’s international perspectives when considering commercial relationships, market entry and the legal dimensions of operating across borders.
Across Addis Ababa’s growing business and technology communities, organisations must balance ambition with sound commercial judgement. Graduates can bring a broader perspective to conversations about expansion, contracts and collaboration—whether they continue building a career locally or pursue opportunities further afield.
