Information on application and admission procedures


Welcome!


This page provides detailed information on the application and admission process for the Master of Science in Management. Please read the following information carefully, as we provide step-by-step guidance. Please understand that we are unable to accept incomplete applications, or applications that are not submitted by the stipulated deadline.


The application process requires the submission of several key documents.






  • Admission requirements and selection process



    Admission to the Master’s programme in Management is competitive. Admission into the programme is based on proof of relevance of previous studies.


    Proof of relevance of previous studies



    • A minimum of six semesters of study culminating in a bachelor’s degree or an equivalent course of study with a minimum of 180 ECTS credits in the subject of business administration or a closely related subject.

    • Applicants must have completed at least 150 of the 180 ECTS credits at the time of application. Unfortunately, we cannot consider applications that do not meet this requirement;

    • Completed 66 ECTS credits and course work in business administration, including at least 18 ECTS from modules with an intermediate or high scientific level;

    • Completed 15 ECTS credits and course work in mathematics or statistics or econometrics.

    • Completed 12 ECTS credits and course work in principles of economic theory.



    Proof of relevant language skills



    • German language skills, if German is not your native language or if you neither have a German university entrance qualification nor have obtained your bachelor's degree or an equivalent degree at a German university in a German-language study programme.

    • For a list of accepted documents, see: "Required application documents"


    Please note



    • For courses to be considered intermediate or advanced ("modules with an intermediate or high scientific level"), the course content must clearly go beyond introductory or basic concepts.

    • If you have not completed your degree at the time of application, the current average score will be calculated.

    • Determining the relevance of previous studies for the MSc Management programme will be based on the documents enclosed in the application (see: "Required application documents")


    The selection process is a two-stage process. The initial selection round will evaluate candidates based on their written application. The second round will evaluate candidates based on personal interviews. Further information on the application process and eligibility requirements can be found in the admission regulations ("Ordnung über die Zugangsvoraussetzungen und über die Zulassung") for the Master’s programme in Management (see: "Admission regulations").
