Matix är en ettårig magisterkurs på Handelshögskolan i Göteborg som kombinerar akademisk fördjupning med affärsutveckling i företag.

Företag får under året ett team av studenter som genomlyser företagets utvecklingsbehov. Som student genomför man kursuppgifter i det företag man är utsedd att ansvara för. Det personliga affärsmannaskapet utvecklas och tränas i teamet och på företaget.

De akademiska kurserna är innovation, strategi och förändringsledning. Parallellt faciliteras reflekterande ledarforum. Kort och gott – det framtidens ledare behöver vara mästare på!
