To the Module Guide
Master's thesis
The Master's thesis is written in the third semester - this academic paper can contain both a theoretical and a practical task from the field of business administration or economics. It can be written in German or English.
Semesterplan

The master's program is modular in structure. The 3 semesters of standard study time (full-time study) are divided into 2 study semesters and one semester in which the master's thesis is written. With 24 semester hours per week, 30 ECTS credits can be earned in each semester - i.e. 90 ECTS credits over the entire duration of the program. In each of the two first semesters, one compulsory module is offered (Business Management or International Business). In addition, a total of 13 in-depth elective modules are offered. Ideally two electives are chosen per study semester.
Upon successful completion of the Master's examination, the academic degree "Master of Arts" (M.A.) is awarded.
International mobility
Since the program has a strong international focus and is oriented towards the global market, a stay abroad is also an option, e.g. in connection with the Master's thesis. Thanks to extensive international relations with European and worldwide universities and companies, you have a wide range of opportunities to gain international experience. If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact the International Office, the Student Advisory Service or your lecturer at the faculty.
