The Master's programme in Management & Entrepreneurship is structured along five tracks:

1. The Ma­nage­ment Stu­dies track ad­dres­ses the issue of re­s­pon­si­ble ma­nage­ment in busi­ness and so­cie­ty. It dis­cus­ses ad­van­ced foun­da­ti­ons of or­ga­ni­sa­ti­on, stra­te­gy and in­no­va­ti­on, of­fers mul­ti­di­sci­pli­na­ry per­spec­tives on di­gi­ta­li­sa­ti­on and con­clu­des in the third se­mes­ter with an in­ter­di­sci­pli­na­ry caps­to­ne pro­ject.

2. The Core Cur­ri­cu­lum track pro­mo­tes en­tre­pre­neu­ri­al thin­king and fos­ters cri­ti­cal re­flec­tion. It inte­gra­tes com­pul­so­ry and elec­tives mo­du­les, brin­ging to­ge­ther two areas of busi­ness stu­dies – en­tre­pre­neurship and ma­nage­ment. We are in­te­rested in to­pics co­ver­ing in­di­vi­du­als, or­ga­ni­sa­ti­ons and in­dus­try set­tings in which in­no­va­tions in pro­ducts, ser­vices, tech­no­lo­gies and in­sti­tu­tio­nal frame­works are re­inven­ted and chan­ged through en­tre­pre­neu­ri­al in­itia­ti­ves.

3. The Re­se­arch track ai­ms to ad­dress real pro­blems and ad­van­ce new know­ledge. You can focus on qua­li­ta­ti­ve and quan­ti­ta­ti­ve re­se­arch me­thods and can apply your theoretical skills within a re­se­arch pro­ject during the third semester.

4. In the Com­ple­men­ta­ry Stu­dies track, you will come together with students from all stu­dy pro­gram­mes in in­ter­di­sci­pli­na­ry se­mi­nars.
