  • MASTER OF SCIENCE [M.SC] (ECONOMICS)

  • The master's program in Economics is taught completely in English. It is guided by a qualitative approach and based on mathematical key principles. Methodical as well as theoretical specialist knowledge is imparted in three specializations in the advanced phase which are structured differently in terms of content and structure. The program is therefore aimed both at those who are interested in a career in business and those who wish to embark on an academic career.
  • Economists may be employed wherever an understanding of economic issues is required. 

    Depending on their specialization, they can work, for example, in ministries and international organizations, in politics, or in the banking and insurance sectors. Administrative departments at federal, state and community institutions, the European Central Bank, the Bundesbank, the Federal Statistical Office, and treasuries and associations are some of the most important employers for economists. In addition, it is possible to work in business consulting or business journalism.

    Economists can also pursue a career in academia either in Germany or abroad.

  • Students of the master’s program in Economics should:

  • be interested in economic issues and scientific research,
  • have a solid basic knowledge of mathematics, macro- and microeconomics, econometrics and statistics,
  • be not afraid of in-depth study of models, theories, data sets and statistical software,
  • be capable of abstract thinking, have sound analytical skills and the ability to reason,
  • be able to write and speak clearly.
  •
