What is the degree program about?

This degree program for working professionals leading to the degree Master in Marketing and Sales Management is aimed at graduates with a Bachelor’s degree and young professionals with an interest in marketing and sales. Students attend courses at the university for three semesters alongside their work, where they receive an education in business studies based on both academic theory and practice which focuses on providing and promoting subject specific, methodological, personal and social skills.

The aim is to prepare students for demanding specialist and management tasks in national and international companies in different industries. In addition to ensuring that students are able to balance their studies with their work, the Master’s degree program offers an opportunity to learn in an interactive and practice-oriented setting.

  • A total of 75 ECTS are acquired in three semesters. These are made up of nine modules with 5 ECTS credits each, two practical reports with 5 ECTS credits each and the Master’s thesis with 20 ECTS credits. The lectures take place on Fridays from 3:00 PM to 8:00 PM and on Saturdays from 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM. There are two attendance weekends and one online weekend per module.

    The part-time Master’s degree program allows students to specialize in „Marketing“ or „Sales“ and to focus more or less strongly on „Digital Business“, depending on their interests. The course content is taught in ten modules that build on each other.

    Structure & Modules:

    1. Basis (Strategies & Instruments): Basic tools for marketing and sales, including strategies and marketing mix instruments.
    2. In-depth (Technologies & Methods): More detailed tools for marketing and sales, including management of key assets such as applications, data, customer relationships and brands.
    3. Specialization (Approaches & Concepts): Transfer-related tools for marketing and sales, including approaches to identify the state of the art in research and practice as well as application to questions in the own company.

    For more information please visit the german website of the degree program.

  • Depending on their current or future professional activity, participants can choose between the specialization „Marketing“ and „Sales“ and thus acquire know-how from this area while working. At the same time, the course also imparts the necessary know-how from the other area in order to ensure smooth cooperation with or a later change to this area.
    In addition, a primarily digital focus or a primarily analogue focus can be selected in the specialization modules. The proportion of content on „Digital Business“ also changes depending on this.

  • On the one hand, the part-time Master’s degree program is aimed at young professionals who, parallel to their professional activities, are seeking further academic qualification and improvement of their career opportunities in marketing or sales.

    On the other hand, it addresses university graduates who want to combine master studies & career entry and thus master degree & first career steps.
