Beschreibung des Programms

Experience the fascination of our Master’s program in International Management

In our program, you will learn how to successfully manage and shape companies and projects on a global level. From divisional and leadership skills to intercultural challenges, you will be prepared for all aspects of international management.

Here you will find all the information about the International Management study program. First, two of our current students introduce themselves. This is followed by important facts about the program and then you can enjoy the video report of our enthusiastic students and graduates.

Target Group

Students with an accredited undergraduate degree (Bachelor or "Diplom") primarily in the field of business administration or economics

Goal

Students learn methods and instruments for managing globally active corporations and are prepared to assume corresponding management tasks, including those, that are innovative and unexpected, and to find solutions for practical problems at business enterprises.

Profile and Objectives

The successful commercialization of products and services in international markets and the globalization of value-added chains are just two examples of the challenges that companies are facing in heightened international competition. The Master's in International Management is ideal preparation for the management tasks required to successfully tackle these challenges. You will learn how to think in intercultural terms and to work using an interdisciplinary approach. Initial experience in a practical environment is the first step to taking on responsible international management roles in a wide range of different sectors and companies of all sizes.

To put it in a nutshell, if you enjoyed the business management topics in your previous undergraduate program, found the globalization of business events exciting, and would like to set your sights on a management position in an international corporation after a few years of professional experience, our program could be just what you have been looking for.

The academic environment at Fulda – small groups, a high proportion of international students, and extensive interaction with the teaching staff – is ideal for tomorrow’s global managers.

Accreditation

The study program has been successfully reaccredited and has been offered in its current form since the winter semester of 2020-21

Instruction and Instructors

Along with its basic organizational conditions, the quality of the study program crucially depends on the didactic skills of the lecturers and professors. Our team includes experienced professors, teachers for specific tasks, and guest lecturers. Our strength lies in our ability to teach you the skills you will need to work in the professional world. In addition, project work and the Master's thesis give you an opportunity to learn the technique of academic work and research; skills which are particularly useful if you want to tap into a new field of knowledge or if you are considering enrolling in a doctoral program at a later date.

We prefer the seminar style of instruction. This means that we seek an interactive exchange between teachers and students and resort to lectures only in exceptional cases. Instruction is given in both English and German. The complex subject matter is taught using small examples and case studies, and sometimes with e-learning tasks or the use of software (e.g. Excel, corporate strategic planning simulation).

Students access the instructional materials via the Department's "eFBW" electronic platform. This also serves as a communication platform between teachers and students.

Regular course evaluations are used for quality assurance and are an important feedback device for our instructors.

In this way, you gain specialized knowledge that you can apply directly, gain the necessary experience for the transition into work, and also earn money. Some degree programs even include complete vocational training. This means you study in a discipline and learn a profession at the same time.

State-of-the-Art Equipment and the Latest Technology

Where could technicians, scientists, or engineers apply their acquired knowledge better than at the workplaces typical for their work? Fortunately, Fulda University of Applied Sciences has a wide range of so-called "labs" for authentic experimentation, real research, and repeated application. This Audio/video, NetLab, Renewable Energies Lab, Raw Materials Science Lab, Microbiology Lab, and Skills Labs simulate real working conditions and thus help students acquire the skills for their future profession.
