You’ll be immersed in a unique, holistic learning style from your very first Online MBA lesson. The Japanese concept of kokorozashi is at the heart of every module. Your kokorozashi is your driving force–the thing that motivates you to grow and evolve, bringing meaning to your life.

Our online, distance learning MBA is delivered live, via video conferencing technology. You’ll study from your computer, but all classes take place live, in real-time, so you’ll be able to interact directly with tutors and classmates alike.
Lectures are delivered live, while smaller group discussions take place via virtual breakout rooms and other interactive tools. You’ll get exactly the same experience as if you were studying for an MBA in person–you’ll just be in your home instead of in a classroom.
Our Online MBA course is delivered in English, so applicants need to be proficient in the language. GLOBIS is a leading Japanese business school, but you do not need to know Japanese to enroll in our MBA degree online.
There are no more than 35 students in every Online MBA class, which means the tutor can interact with students both individually and in small groups. It also means everyone has the opportunity to ask questions for an enriching learning experience.
If you miss an online class, recordings will be available for you to watch at a later date. You will be expected to catch up before the next class.
