Profile
The objective of the application-oriented master’s programme is to teach and develop comprehensive, scientifically based skills in communication and multimedia for market management – enabling you to take on executive functions in middle or senior management.
The programme provides subject-specific and methodological competence in communication and multimedia management. You acquire the skills to assume responsibility and fill executive and decision-making positions in national and interna-tional markets.
You achieve these objectives by:
- attaining expertise in the areas of communication, multimedia and market management as well as knowledge of corporate and personnel management,
- completing case studies and project work on concrete problem cases from practice,
- writing a master’s thesis on practical issues, or even in cooperation with the industry.
In the context of this study programme, market management is understood as
- the holistic, problem-oriented, non-industry specific analysis and development of markets as well as
- the configuration of corporate structures and processes tailored for these markets.
It is truly unique that the programme combines market management, universally applicable across all sectors, with a focus on communication and multimedia.
Please note: The language of instruction is mainly German.
