Finish in as little as 1 year, 100% online

This efficiency doesn’t compromise depth. Expect robust reading, critical discussion, and applied assessments that deepen your understanding of energy economics, sustainability strategy, and responsible leadership.

Asynchronous learning empowers you to engage when you’re most focused. Participate in discussions, review materials, and submit work on timelines that respect your time zone and responsibilities.

Commutes, travel days, and downtime become learning time. With offline access, you can keep progressing even with limited connectivity, then sync seamlessly when you’re back online.

Open-book assessments that mirror real work

Instead of traditional memorisation-based exams, the programme uses open-book assessments. This approach prioritises analysis, judgement, and application—exactly how leaders solve problems in the workplace.

You’ll demonstrate mastery by synthesising multiple sources, evaluating scenarios, and making evidence-based recommendations—skills that translate directly to boardrooms, project sites, and policy tables.

How this MBA empowers careers in Ethiopia

Ethiopia is expanding and diversifying its energy mix—strengthening hydropower, exploring geothermal and wind, and extending reliable access to households and industry. With advanced study in energy markets, sustainability strategy, and project leadership, graduates can contribute to grid expansion, off-grid solutions, electrification of industrial parks, and the scaling of renewable generation with social and environmental responsibility.

Across agriculture and manufacturing—coffee, horticulture, textiles, leather, and more—organisations are seeking efficiency, resilience, and transparent, sustainable supply chains. The programme equips you to design ESG-aligned strategies, reduce waste and water impact, evaluate circular economy options, and manage initiatives such as clean energy adoption, waste-to-energy, and resource-efficient production.

Policy, finance, and entrepreneurship are central to Ethiopia’s development vision. With skills in sustainability leadership, risk management, and responsible investment, you can navigate public–private partnerships, structure bankable green projects, support climate-resilient planning, and build ventures in areas like e-mobility, energy services, and digital efficiency solutions—collaborating with stakeholders from government to international partners.
