The programmes will focus on digitalisation and gender dynamics in the workplace

GISMA Business School has today announced the launch of its Summer School, which will start this year with four programmes in Berlin and Hannover.

Over the months of July and August, the GISMA Summer School will offer a range of two-week programmes, available to domestic and international students. The courses have been designed to broaden students' knowledge of some of the most relevant topics that are shaping the current global business landscape, including: digital transformation, big data and digital ethics, and gender dynamics in the workplace.

The Summer School portfolio has been developed by GISMA's faculty to effectively prepare candidates to address these issues. Dr. Elisabeth Grindel-Denby, Director of Academic Affairs at GISMA Business School, said: "Over the past years, digitalisation and gender dynamics have become an integral part of international business, shaping strategies and impacting on outcomes."

"We believe a deep understanding of these trends will become more and more relevant for aspiring professionals. These courses will give our students exhaustive knowledge and direct experience in the field, which will equip them with specific skills to excel in global business roles."

During the two-week summer programmes, students will benefit from GISMA's excellent connections to local businesses in Berlin and Hannover. Taught entirely in English, the courses will include lectures, workshops, and company visits.

GISMA Summer School will offer the following programmes:

• The Digital Firm and Services
• Big Data and Digital Ethics
• Gender Dynamics in the Workplace
• The Digital Transformation of the Established Firm - An Integrative approach

The structure of the courses will allow German and international students to expand their academic knowledge and acquire new skills.
