Master in AI & Entrepreneurship

Overview

Where AI meets business impact.

Albert School, the first European Business & Data School, joins forces with POLIMI Graduate School of Management to launch a groundbreaking Master in AI & Entrepreneurship.

This is where artificial intelligence becomes a driver of innovation across industries — from launching new ventures to transforming global corporations.

Designed for ambitious professionals, this program equips you with the technical expertise, strategic mindset, and entrepreneurial approach needed to thrive in the AI-powered economy. Whether your goal is to build your own startup, shape digital strategy in a multinational, or drive innovation in consulting or corporate roles, this master opens the door to a wide range of career paths.

Is it right for me?

You are an ideal candidate for our Master in AI and Entrepreneurship if you:

hold a bachelor’s degree (minimum of 3 years of full-time study) in any discipline, have a working knowledge of Python, a solid foundation in applied mathematics, and a strong interest in the tech world and its potential to drive innovation.

Please note that we’ve designed this programme for recent graduates with ideally no more than 3 years of work experience. If you have more experience, you might also like to take a look at our International MBA programmes.

Why choose this master?

The International Master in Media and Communication Management is unique for the following reasons:

A programme that responds to market demands:

It is a programme that responds to market demand: In 2025, nearly 80% of organizations worldwide are either using or piloting AI in their core functions and 73% of professionals say they want to improve their skills in AI agents, large language models, and retrieval-augmented generation. At the same time, 52% of companies cite lack of AI knowledge as the main barrier to adoption. This programme is designed to fill that gap-equipping future entrepreneurs and innovators with the technical and strategic skills needed to lead in an AI-driven economy.

Practice-based learning:

This is not a theoretical master! Throughout the journey, you’ll learn by doing-through interactive, hands-on methodologies. The programme includes more than 200 hours of lab-based content, sessions with industry managers, real-world challenges, and business games. You’ll master essential entrepreneurial and analytical skills while applying innovative methodologies such as design thinking, lean startup, and agile product development to real business scenarios.
