The students take the following core modules:

Depending on their future career goals, our students can choose from four business specialisations at four international locations:

Possibility of finding part-time employment
Given that this is a one-year, full-time Master's programme with an intense study period and high workload, it is advisable not to work during the course of study. (In general, students from European Union countries are not required to have a work permit to work during their course of study. Students from countries outside the European Union may work 120 full days or 240 half days over the course of one year without a work permit. A special permit is required to work more than that.)
