Master of Science in International Economics and Management

Are you interested in how companies and entire economies operate in global markets? Are you fascinated by other cultures and economic areas, and can you imagine working in an internationally operating company, research institution or in an international organisation? Our Master's programme in International Economics and Management – IEM for short – offers you a wide range of opportunities for living internationalisation. Our compulsory modules are taught in English. With regard to the further module selection during your studies, you are free to decide whether you want to fill your study plan only with modules taught in English or to also include modules taught in German. But it is not only through the modules taught in English that you can improve your language skills and gain international experience. In addition, numerous partner universities as well as various co-operations around the world offer you the opportunity to spend a semester abroad or take part in a double degree programme, summer schools or short-term programmes. More than one third of our students, thus your fellow students, come from abroad. In a forum, we encourage cross-cultural exchange through social events, and exciting talks. We provide you with the necessary theoretical and methodological knowledge to answer the question of how global markets actually work, what influence they have on organisations and how a company can position itself successfully in these markets. At the same time, the study plan offers a high degree of flexibility to enable you to tailor the programme to your individual interests by establishing a focus in the fields of economics and management. This opens the door to leading and strategically oriented management positions in internationally operating companies, organisations and research institutions. Your specific field of application area then depends on your individually chosen study track. Possible career profiles: Manager in a multinational firm Management consultant, data analyst Position in an international organisation Position in an NGO Position in a financial institution or central bank Research-oriented career Detailed information can be found on the website of the study programme: https://www.uni-paderborn.de/en/studyoffer/course_of_study/international-economics-and-management-master.
