Studying at MU is not solely a unique opportunity given the Academic Foundation of the University and the environment of Marbella itself, but also due to the practical element of the degrees offered through MU Laboratories.

Acquiring real-life knowledge and learning about professional skills is an essential part of the studies at MU. MU gives importance to adapting knowledge and skills into real professional patterns. The MU laboratories give students the opportunity for role plays, creating models of businesses, developing designs and presentations, and other professional situations with a real impact.

A variety of local business owners also offer their businesses as off-campus Laboratories where students can offer their analysis, develop innovations, and create new concepts (marketing, promotion, business structure, PR, psychological insights, etc.).

This practical approach, partly integrated in the lectures and partly imparted as separate events, is also an essential source for the yearly projects as well as the final thesis.
