Program Overview

Globalization eradicates borders, and digitalization prompts industries and societies to form closer networks. In this world, experts are those who combine knowledge of their industry with an understanding of organizational processes, and the ability to think economically, dynamically, and based on solutions. If you want to become one of these experts but have not gained specialized economics expertise yet, this master’s program will provide you with the know-how you need.

The Master’s program International Management (M.A.) aims to turn students into economics enablers. Whether you’re looking to go into marketing, HR, or finance, you will not only have the economic expertise necessary to start your career but will also know how to use this when identifying solutions. Management becomes both a skill and a way to think ahead, anticipating challenges but also facilitating change.
