About the Program

The English-taught Master’s programme in Global Management offers students a holistic approach towards management and provides a fundamental overview in the areas of sales, supply network management, operational excellence, digital marketing and global business strategies. Directed at graduates of a business-related Bachelor’s programme with an interest in international management topics, the programme imparts knowledge in all management areas relevant for innovative international value chains. Apart from theoretical knowledge, international managers also need intercultural competence and an in-depth understanding of the markets they are dealing with. Therefore, our MA students spend the third semester doing a practical internship in an internationally operating company (e.g. in a marketing or HR department). The Master's thesis is also project-based and written in cooperation with the company. Thus, you can immediately apply your knowledge and gain profound professional experience at the same time. The internship must be completed in a country which is different from the student's nationality. At our practice-oriented university, students benefit from professors with international experience and many years of managerial experience.
