What is it?
With the Master of Science in Insurance and Banking, you’ll specialize in banking, insurance, and finance. The focus is on in-depth and research-based discussion of major management tasks in the German and international banking, insurance, and capital market sectors.

What our graduates say
The dual studies program was the ideal way for me to combine theory and practical experience and to facilitate my entry into professional life through practical lectures. The exchange with the professors was also enriching beyond the content - current industry topics and economic developments were discussed together. I was much better prepared for my master's degree in many areas.
