The Master in International Strategic Management at HWR Berlin (Berlin School of Economics and Law) is designed for graduates from Germany and abroad who have completed a first university degree (usually a Bachelor's degree) and would like to study for a postgraduate degree in an international group of students.
The programme prepares students for positions which require strategic, cross-functional competencies in companies who are active in the international arena, in consulting firms, or in international investment promotion bodies. This may concern for instance internal and external project management and consulting roles, team membership in strategy and change projects, and assistant positions to executives with global responsibilities.
Courses are predominately structured as interactive seminars and are taught in English. Teaching takes place in seminars in which students have close contact with the teaching staff and in which they are expected to play an active part.
The Master's programme is divided into three parts:
First semester: foundation courses and specialisation
Second semester: foundation courses and specialisation
Third semester: Master's thesis (provided students do not take an additional internship semester)
The first semester modules are worth a total of 30 credit points. During the first semester, students extend their knowledge in particular areas and commence their specialisation.
The second semester modules - also worth 30 credit points - build on the first semester to provide additional specialised skills required for challenges in their future careers.
The two semesters are accompanied by a personal development module which provides a platform for individual self-reflection and competence development.
For students who do not take an internship semester (usually students with 210 credit points), the third semester is scheduled for completing the degree by submitting a Master's thesis and defending it in an oral exam. During the third semester, a research methodology seminar is provided to support work on the Master's thesis. The third semester is worth a total of 30 credit points.
Total credits after successful completion of the programme: 90 ECTS
Selected students can be entered in the dual award programme organised with the ESC Rennes in France or the Symbiosis International University in Pune, India.
For admission to the programme, 210 ECTS credit points are required. Applicants with 180 ECTS credit points will be required to obtain the additional 30 ECTS credit points, for example, by completing an internship in the third semester. The programme will then last four semesters.
