- Description/content
- Are you interested in sustainable corporate management? Do you want to take responsibility for a sustainable economy and learn how to develop and promote business models in an international context? Do you want to be able to work internationally, lead a team and inspire people to act responsibly? Then the Master's degree programme in International Management & Sustainability provides you with everything you need for an international career.
Global markets are characterised by change and fierce competition. In order to be able to grow and export, not only corporations but also medium-sized and smaller companies have long since made a name for themselves on the international stage or are planning to expand. In addition, Greta Thunberg's messages have been on everyone's lips and on all screens ever since questions of sustainable corporate development and a future-oriented sustainable economy and lifestyle have become more and more anchored in people's consciousness. Companies are therefore faced with the question of whether their business models are sustainable, ecologically and socially compatible, and viable in the long term.
In the Master's degree programme in International Management & Sustainability, we show you how to turn these challenges into opportunities. In addition to the important linguistic expertise, you will also acquire international knowledge and intercultural skills. The Master's programme combines current issues from the fields of "International Management" (including strategic management, value chains, project management) and "Sustainability" (including climate change, environmental economics, sustainability management and social entrepreneurship). The range of subjects is supplemented by basic knowledge of general management and corporate responsibility. In addition to business administration training, you will work on your personal development and leadership skills. Upon successful completion of your studies, you will be awarded the Master of Arts MA academic degree. This will enable you to start your career as broadly trained experts with management responsibility in a global environment as well as in sustainability management or innovation management.
We inspire leadership and encourage innovation. Come to the Weiden Business School (https://www.oth-aw.de/en/university/departments/weiden-business-school/welcome-to-the-weiden-business-school/) at OTH Amberg-Weiden!
