Master in Business Studies for Non-Business Graduates

Do you have a university degree in a non-business subject, and would like to pursue a career in management? Then you are also welcome at the IUBH as a career changer.
The Master in International Management for Non-Business Graduates is non-consecutive, that is, it does not necessarily follow on from previous studies in economics.
The programme is specially designed for people who would like to acquire fundamental knowledge of business administration and international management – with the objective of qualifying for a position in senior management.
 

The Master's programme will train you to become an executive with management functions in three semesters – ideal preparation for your career:

    Your studies will be as practice-oriented as possible
    You will expand your knowledge in the important fundamentals of business administration
    You will train your soft skills, such as communication or intercultural competence

Step-by-step to your Master's degree

    Preparation semester
    In the preparatory semester, you focus on classical business administration content:
    > Marketing strategy and planning
    > Financial Accounting
    > Principles of Human Resource Management
    > Methods of statistics
    > Intercultural Communication

    This semester provides you with ideal preparation for the business content in the subsequent semesters of your Master's programme. Here you can become acquainted with your later specialisations.
    After you have successfully completed the preparatory semester, you are well prepared for the subsequent two-semester Master's programme in International Management.

    First semester
    The first semester is for your expanding specialisation in your chosen programme.

    Second semester
    In this semester you complete your studies by writing your Master's thesis. The thesis is written under the expert supervision of professors and lecturers as an independent scientific paper for solving a management task.

The courses are held in lecture and seminar format. There are about 30 students per class – this encourages dialogue between professors and students.
