Course Overview

Are you interested in both French language and culture and Business Administration? Would you like to pursue a career in Management, Controlling, Human Resources, or in the Marketing department of an internationally active company? The German-French master’s degree program in International Management equips you with the requisite know-how to do this!Provided in cooperation between the HWR Berlin and the École Supérieure du Commerce Extérieur (ESCE), Paris, and taught at both institutions, this bi-national consecutive (Bachelor’s and Master’s) degree program seeks to promote bilingual learning in an international and intercultural environment. It qualifies its holders for a career in the global market.The high priority accorded in this degree program to the interaction between theory and practice and its Franco-German component makes it highly unusual. Students first immerse themselves in the practical requirements of international management through the practical phase of the degree program. Whilst German students are placed in a francophone environment, French students go to work in Germany. Students graduate after seven semesters with a dual award Bachelor’s degree from both institutions. A further three semesters of study leads to the dual award Master’s degree.Degree structureThis bi-national degree program is provided as a combined bachelor’s/master’s degree program which does not permit transfer – the prerequisite of admission to the master’s program is completion of the bachelor’s degree program.
