Distance Education Mobile Business

Posted by nadiafischerzuerich on 250 Points
Hi there.
I am looking for your recommendations on an Institution for a distance education on a Master of Advanced Studies in Mobile Business (or alternatively for a Master of Advanced Studies in Human-Computer Interaction). Let me explain in detail.
I am currently working in a startup as Head of Sales&Marketing that does SaaS and is closely linked to mobile apps. I would now like to get some deeper education in this in order to give me a good steppingstone also certificate-wise. My problem: I work in Switzerland and though there are some institutions that offer such courses they are all of quite bad quality, i.e. the lecturers know about the subjects just as much as I do. That is why I would like to have lecturers coming directly from the US and even better from Silicon valley. I recently was in SF and was amazed by the good quality of the lecturers at events. It needs to be distance learning as I live with the family in Switzerland and cannot move for the moment. It needs to be a Master as "just" courses are not valued enough in Switzerland. I am not looking for the technical part of it, i.e. programming any mobile apps (since I am a Marketing person) but rather on subjects such as: user experience - theory and practice; rules when creating a mobile app; best practice for mobile presence (not only apps); project planning regarding mobile presence and apps; mobile CRM; mobile marketing; etc. I hope you see what I am looking for. A subject that would also interest me - and that seems to be somewhat broader - is human-computer-interaction. So any recommendations on this is also highly appreciated.
Would anybody know a great distance learning institution offering this kind of education? (I had no success on my search on the web...)
Thanks in advance for your recommendations.

    I didn't have any luck either - but I did come up with something else which might help you in your search. Many publications are from universities as part of their study program, or are quoted by the study program. Either way, this might lead you to the course you're interested in.

    Of course, there are the other places too - and you can check out the university's own press

    Does this help any?
