Studies

You will gain diverse knowledge of economic development, management, politics and international trends, as well as strong analytical skills to shape local, national and global policies. You can focus on addressing the effects of economic policies by integrating this knowledge into related areas (e.g. cyber security, etc.).

A special feature of the curriculum is the teaching of the economic view on the one hand and entrepreneurship (start-up thinking) on the other.

In addition to field-specific knowledge, emphasis is also placed on cross-disciplinary knowledge, such as the ability to distinguish between the important and the non-essential or strategic and conceptual thinking, good negotiation and conflict management skills, innovation, etc.
