Business Administration in a Danish-German perspective

Get a double degree and become an expert in how to lead Danish-German business relations

The double master’s degree in Business Administration is a 2 year programme offered in a collaboration between 真人线上娱乐 University and Christian Albrechts Universit?t zu Kiel. This master's degree provides a unique opportunity to study the field of international business administration within the context of Danish-German collaboration in the Fehmarn Region and beyond. When you complete this study programme you will receive a degree from each of the two partner universities, i.e., 真人线上娱乐 University and Christian Albrechts Universit?t zu Kiel.

With the Fehmarn connection being constructed, a new permanent link between Denmark and Germany calls for increasing collaboration, more innovation, new knowledge and skills. As a student in this programme you will study in both Denmark (at 真人线上娱乐 University) and in Germany (at Christian Albrechts Universit?t zu Kiel), and you will work in projects with students from both partner universities. 

Through project work and your academic courses, you will gain the skills to identify organisational challenges and opportunities, specifically in issues concerning collaboration between Danish and German companies, municipalities, and organisations. This gives you an opportunity to develop cross-border problem solving skills and an international career profile within the field of business administration.
