Admission requirements
for the Master's degree programme in Business Administration for Non-Business Graduates (MScBA)
A university degree, Bachelor's degree or equivalent qualification from a university, university of applied sciences or equivalent higher education institution in Germany, or an equivalent degree from abroad, in a field other than Business Administration or a related field. A degree is not considered to be in Business Administration if modules in business and economics account for no more than 10% of the ECTS credits – or, alternatively, the contact hours per week. The degree must comprise at least 180 ECTS credits. Applicants must demonstrate that they completed the degree with a final grade of at least 2.5 or an ECTS grade of C.
You must provide proof of your English language proficiency through one of the following:
- TOEFL iBT score of 79 (as of 2008)
- TOEIC score of 750
- ILEC (Level B2)
- IELTS (Level B2)
- at least 30 ECTS credits from courses taught and examined entirely in English, with the final examinations having been completed within the last two years
The test result must be submitted no later than two months after the start of the lecture period. If proof is not submitted within this deadline, admission to the following semester will be denied.
Language test results are valid for two years from the date of issue.
Appropriate periods spent abroad may replace language tests. Equivalence will be assessed on a case-by-case basis.
Applicants must demonstrate their suitability and motivation in an interview if the programme management considers this necessary.
