What it is
The first year gives a base in mathematics, company law and financial accounting, and the second goes deeper into microeconomics, macroeconomics, probability, statistics, econometrics and financial analysis, with later work on international trade, marketing and strategy. Teaching is a weekly mix of lectures and seminars, a study period abroad is compulsory, preferably in an English-speaking country, and an optional internship must be abroad or with an international company. Many credits are optional, so there are no fixed tracks, and a final project closes the degree. Graduates work as international market advisers, business consultants, auditors, sales and marketing directors, or in European and international bodies.
What you need
- All courses in English; B2 English is essential, but no English test is required for admission.
