The application
Whether climate change, migration or violent conflicts: global challenges require multilateral solutions. In our Master's degree program, we offer an interdisciplinary education that provides in-depth methodological and specialist knowledge in the disciplines of international law, international politics and international business (economics) in three specializations. Compulsory courses in the disciplines of the respective specialization, which are attended together with major students, form the core of the course. This ensures that our students receive an academic education at the highest professional level. In addition, there is a broad catalog of compulsory elective courses in which students can specialize in certain topics, as well as original interdisciplinary courses that are jointly supported by the participating disciplines. The opportunity to study abroad, e.g. at one of our numerous partner universities, is an integral part of the program.
The aim of our programme is to qualify students for a career in academia, international organizations, NGOs, ministries or business. A prerequisite for successful study is an openness to both quantitative and qualitative research methods, whereby the focus varies between the disciplines.
