Introduction
Students are familiarised with methods and instruments of business fields as well as related fields such as Business Law, Economic Sociology, Business IT, Economics and Statistics. Upon graduation, the former students are able to solve management problems independently and apply acquired method skills to solve economic problems.
Furthermore, master's programme students are prepared to extend their university education as part of a PhD degree course in business administration or business law.
Structure
The first part of the Business Administration master's programme is the introductory phase, in which the students can choose from business administrative and methodological subjects. Parallel to the introductory phase, other courses may already be attended.
During the intensification phase, the students can choose between majors (40 ECTS credits) and minors (20 ECTS credits), which mean large or small specialisations, which are presented as course blocks of various subject areas. Students can either choose two majors (2 times 40 ECTS credits) or 1 major and 2 minors (40 ECTS credits + 2 times 20 ECTS credits).
Moreover, students must complete electives to the extent of 8 ECTS credits and even have the possibility to receive a credit to the maximum extent of 4 ECTS credits for internships.
At the end of the programme, the students must complete the master's thesis module. This includes writing the master's thesis, a discussion course (Konversatorium) and the completion of the master’s exam.
Specifics
By choosing majors and minors, students have the possibility to develop their scientific and professional profile individually and customise their study programme according to future career aspirations.
The significantly simplified admission criteria enable bachelor graduates of non-economic study programmes to be admitted to the master's programme Business Administration. In addition, the prerequisites for courses are few, so that students can plan the progression of their studies independently.
