The Master's programme

Have you successfully completed the three-year Bachelor degree programme? Then you can transfer directly to the English-language Master’s programme in Business Administration. This is a high-quality, intensive degree programme, which allows you to specialise further into your chosen field. You complete your Master’s programme with a Master’s thesis and then graduate as a Master of Science (MSc).

You can choose from the following six specialisations:

Innovation and Entrepreneurship

Innovation management focuses on the management of innovation, primarily on the organisational level. The specialisation specifically addresses the relation between operational and strategic processes and the role of innovation in achieving short- and long-term effectiveness.
Entrepreneurship highlights the basic process of recognising and assessing opportunities and developing and implementing business concepts. Central are aspects such as market orientation, knowledge management resulting in new business development, understanding markets and societal developments and the influence of regulation.

International Management

International Management is a Master programme preparing Bachelor degree students for a professional position in the field of International Management. The track focuses on students with a Bachelor degree wanting to acquire additional skills for operating in the international context and who are looking for practical international experience. Since the program focuses on the relationship between industrialised and industrialising economies, it offers students the international specialisation they are after.

Service Management

The number and variety of service-oriented organisations has risen dramatically over the last decades. However, most of our management knowledge is still based on the industrial setting. Therefore it is of paramount importance to study employee behaviour within service settings as well as how they normally function in their surroundings. Service delivery represents the intangible experiences had by customers, partners or citizens, including the various forms of contact that exist between the service provider and the beneficiary. As a result, managing employee behaviour in a service-type setting differs from managing it in an industrial setting.

Human Resource Management

Most decisions made within companies and organisations have significant implications for the employee. An example would be the introduction of new products or services that necessitate change in activities and tasks and possibly even the recruitment and contracting of new specialists. It’s a challenge for every organisation and for each manager to keep employees motivated and productive, in a positive way, as these changes take place.

Financial Management

Financial Management deals with the starting of small- and medium-sized enterprises as well as larger companies and multinationals. The financial instruments employed in managing such different organisations will vary widely of course and the specialisation addresses this variety by covering cases from organisations of varying sizes. Additionally, some attention will be given to non-profit organisations.

Information Management

The specialisation Information Management focuses on increasing the value of your organisation and its network through Information and Communication Technology (ICT). Information and knowledge are the most important factors in the current era of innovation. ICT is an essential enabler of high quality and efficient information management and helps to reshape the nature of tasks by improving the processing and dissemination of information.
