Partner universities in the joint Master's degree program Global Business Studies have limited spots available for students during the international mobility period. In this regard, must be very selective and students are required to complete a three-step application procedure.
The process has been designed to help us get to know each other better on a more detailed, personal level. Please note that in order to enroll in this academic degree program, you must meet all of the admission requirements.
Step 1: Apply for the Program
By submitting a convincing application, we have the opportunity to learn more about you and your background. Please submit an application along with the following documents and do not forget to indicate which program option you prefer:
- Letter of Intent
- CV
- Transcripts
- Proof of proficiency in English (C1).
During the second phase of the procedure, we will review your application and documents. In the event that we still have questions or need more detailed information, we will contact you about re-sending any missing documents. After our internal review is complete and in the event that you fulfill the requirements for admission to the Master's degree program, we will invite you for a personal interview.

Step 2: Personal Interview
The interviews will take place at the Institute of Innovation Management. If you are abroad and cannot personally attend the interview, the interview session will be conducted via Skype. The interview will be held in English and you will be asked about your motivation to complete the program as well as tell us about your personal aspirations. In addition, we will work with you to create a personal "roadmap" for the Master's degree program. Each year we have two rounds of interviews during:
- Winter Term: in December
- Summer Term: in May
