Winter Program 2025

MCI Winter Program

In our three-four-week winter program held in February, we offer undergraduate courses with a focus on entrepreneurship and business. Pack your bags and enjoy experiential learning with quizzes and case studies as well as exciting sports and leisure opportunities such as skiing, snowboarding, ice skating or simply going for a relaxed stroll along the river Inn.

Our ideal location also makes it easier for you to visit nearby cities and countries - all it takes is a few-hours’ train ride to:

Salzburg, where Mozart used to live and “The Sound of Music” was filmed
Vienna, Austria’s gorgeous capital city with its rich imperial past
Venice, one of the world’s most romantic cities
Munich, city of the "Oktoberfest"

Talk to your academic advisor to see how credits earned in our short programs can be transferred to your home university; push your need to upskill and make your dreams a reality.
