Kurzbeschreibung	The ETH MBA SCM program culminates with a Master's Thesis.
Lernziel	For this last assignment, each student is granted the opportunity to apply what they have learned during the MBA course to a real-life problem. With the support of a faculty advisor, MBA candidates usually select a project of strategic interest to their own companies. The exercise is not designed to produce purely academic output. Upon completion of the thesis, our MBA candidates must defend the outcome – solution and business result - in front of both faculty and classmates. This final learning experience tests executives in method, solution, and presentation.
