Master of Science in Business Administration Your practically oriented degree in Business Administration

The Master of Science in Business Administration builds upon the knowledge gained in a bachelor’s degree and meets the highest requirements of a degree in business. On the one hand, it provides the necessary breadth to create extensive know-how in relevant business management topics and, on the other hand, it allows for an in-depth exploration of a chosen topic through individual specialisation (major).

The latest trends and new research findings are reflected in the strategically and analytically oriented content, which thus offer the perfect tools for a high-performance career at home or abroad. Interlinked module types (see diagram) ensure a continuous synergy of theory and practice. This is a defining feature throughout this programme. The programme design allows for a concurrent working commitment of up to 60 per cent. This allows you to study and work at the same time and take advantage of synergies.

Master’s thesis

The master’s thesis is a key element of the degree programme. The understanding of business and research methods gained during the degree programme, together with a topic selected from the subject area of your major, all come together when you write your master’s thesis.

The research into the topic of your master’s thesis will develop solutions to complex questions and problems that will add real value to your sponsor’s business. This is a win-win-win situation for you, your sponsor and the research community of which you will be a part.
