- Description/content
- The Consumer Science Master's programme at TUM School of Management is one of a kind in Germany. It guarantees you a unique academic experience with fellow students from many different countries and academic backgrounds. This diversity, combined with the broad curriculum of the programme, nurtures the exchange of different perspectives, fosters intercultural skills and prepares you for a successful career in an international setting.
The programme combines perspectives from a variety of disciplines, which makes it particularly challenging. You will need a sound theoretical and methodological foundation. This is provided mainly by courses during the first two semesters, preparing you for more specialised courses in your last two semesters.
The programme includes a mandatory project study module that provides you with hands-on experience in a practical, interdisciplinary environment.
After graduation, students are academically trained experts in consumer science with a focus on their specialisations. They can seek employment with a wide variety of employers, including companies, government agencies, consumer associations, research institutes, and consultancies. Students in the Consumer Science Master's programme are trained to work in European and international companies and institutions.
