- Description/content
- For the International Management Double Degree (IMX) programme, you will study for two years in Germany and two in the country of your partner university. This generalist business administration degree programme offers a broad view of every area: general business administration, quantitative methods, economics, marketing, finance and accounting, managerial skills, etc., complemented by numerous elective modules. You also have a choice of renowned universities in eleven countries and can start your studies in Reutlingen or abroad.
The ESB Business School and the partner university coordinate the course contents in detail, and you will not miss out on any content by switching universities. Likewise, your study credits will be mutually recognised.
Over the period of eight semesters, you will gain sound economic expertise and wide-ranging intercultural management skills, and you will study in small, multinational groups. Lectures are complemented by shared exercises and immersion sessions. In the fifth semester, you will transfer to the partner university.
Following successful completion of your studies, you will gain a Bachelor of Science in International Management from Reutlingen University and an equivalent degree from your partner university. This gives you 240 ECTS points, which meets the admission requirements for all further Master's degrees and many doctoral programmes worldwide.
