Thesis of the Professional Master in Business in the BRICS countries, Mexico, Nigeria,

and Saudi Arabia

For the successful completion of the Master in Business in the BRICS-MNS Countries (e-learning), the student must submit a Thesis. It is the final work of the Master.

The dissertation (thesis) is conceived as an exam that tests the ability of synthesis of the student to develop a particular subject (between 30 to 50 pages) related to the BRICS Countries (Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa) - MNS (Mexico, Nigeria, and Saudi Arabia).

The dissertation (thesis) aims the student to demonstrate their theoretical and practical knowledge about business in the BRICS-MNS markets and/or their economic areas. The topic is chosen by the student with the support of his professor and must be related to the contents of the Master.

For students who are working in an exporting company; we recommend writing the dissertation on the elaboration of an International Marketing Plan for one BRICS-MNS market.

Some examples of theses of the Master:

1. International Marketing Plan for the BRICS markets

2. Investment project in Brazil (China, India, Russia)

3. SWOT analysis of the company X in the BRICS markets

4. Creating international distribution networks in the BRICS

5. Trade Relations between the BRICS

6. Nigeria and the BRICS Countries

7. International Promotion strategies for Russia, China, and India

2. Tuition fees: 2,358 Euros

The BRICS Countries

1. The total nominal GDP of the BRICS Countries (2015): 16.92 trillion USD (23.1% of the world GDP)

2. The BRICS Countries population: 3,073 million of people (53.4% of the world population)

3. Exports: 3.48 trillion USD (19.1% of the world total, 8.1% in 2001)

4. Imports: 3.03 trillion USD

5. Duplication since 2001 of its share in global exports

6. Intra-BRICS trade: increase of 163% between 2006 and 2015.

7. The gross domestic product (GDP) of emerging economies has risen from 39.7% of the world GDP in 1990 to 48% in 2006

8. In 2050, BRIC markets (Brazil, Russia, India, and China) will generate 44% of global gross domestic product

9. The Indian Economy will surpass the US economy in 2043

Goldman Sachs predicts that:

1. China and India will be the dominant global suppliers of manufactured goods and services

2. While Brazil and Russia would become dominant as suppliers of raw materials

India and China are investing in higher education and going for “intellectual capital,” while Russia and Brazil depend too on commodity prices and are not making the necessary investments in infrastructure and human capital.

India has ten of the thirty fastest-growing urban areas in the World and, based on actual trends, 700 millions of people will move to the Indian cities by 2050. This will have significant implications for demand for urban infrastructure, real estate, and services. The economy of India will surpass the United States (in USD) by 2043. Recently Tata Motors acquired two recognised old British car-making brands: Jaguar and Land Rover.

Note: South Africa officially became a member of the BRICS in 2010; BRIC was renamed to BRICS (S for South Africa).

other markets analysed in the Master, the Saudi religious, political, economic, and financial influence on the Ummah (Islamic Community) is decisive

Moreover, four markets related to BRICS Countries are included:

1. Belarus: The inclusion of Belarus in the Master is justified due to the “State of the Union with Russia”

2. Nepal, Bhutan, and Mauritius has strong economic relations with India. Mauritius is the Indian business gateway to access to the African Markets, the least corrupt country in Africa and the second financial centre of Africa
