International Management

The Master's programme in International Management (MAIM) is a two-year programme accredited by FIBBA. The modules are taught in English and are aimed at students who have already completed a degree in a business-related or economic field and wish to prepare for a management position in an internationally active company.

One major emphasis of the M.A. programme is put on the interaction between theoretical knowledge and its practical application. This approach is underscored by the internship phase within the M.A. programme. The M.A. programme builds on the students' broad general understanding of the field and offers them the chance to acquire a more specialized advanced qualification that prepares them for high-level management positions in an international business environment. To achieve this, the programme aims to introduce students to the field of international management by shedding light on the following aspects: business strategies, human resource policy, financing and legal issues. The course curriculum therefore focuses on the key areas of business and enterprise management. Students spend at least twelve weeks studying abroad as part of a work placement scheme. In the final phase of the programme, students compile their Master’s thesis and present their core findings in the associated research colloquium.
