Master of Science (M.Sc.)
Overview
In a Nutshell
Management, HR, Marketing, Taxation, Investment, Accounting, Controlling, Production, or Logistics? In the Master’s program in Business Administration, you set your own focus! The flexible curriculum allows you to shape your individual profile. This way, you’ll build strong subject-specific and methodological expertise—preparing you to thrive in a dynamic professional environment and to develop scientifically grounded solutions to emerging economic challenges.
Formal requirements
Successful completion of the Bachelor's degree programme in Economics at Paderborn University, an equivalent or comparable research-oriented degree programme in Economics or a relevant degree programme. In principle, other Bachelor's or FH degrees are also sufficient.
The Bachelor's degree programme must either
- have been completed with a grade of at least 2.5, or
- the application must be among the first 35 per cent of all graduates who have completed the examination. Either all corresponding examinations of the final semester and the previous semester or all corresponding examinations of the two previous semesters must be taken into account. This means that the grade of your degree (not individual examinations) is considered in relation to the final grades of all other degrees in the same degree programme. The comparison groups are either the degrees of the graduates of your final semester and the previous semester or the degrees of the graduates of the two previous semesters. In both cases, you must be among the top 35% with your degree in order to fulfil this formal admission requirement.
Content requirements
Overall, you must have knowledge in the following fields and scope:
- Business administration and economics 80 ECTS
- Quantitative methods including business informatics 40 ECTS, of which mathematics 10 ECTS and statistics 10 ECTS
- Bachelor's thesis 10 ECTS
Language requirements
Please note that international students (before they can start their actual studies) must prove that their language skills are sufficient for their chosen degree programme. Accepted tests and specific requirements can be found at the International Office.
Are you missing ECTS?
If you are missing up to 30 ECTS credits from your Bachelor's degree, enrolment in the Master's programme is possible subject to certain conditions. If possible, the requirements should be fulfilled in the first year of the Master's programme. You can find out which content you need to re-study in the notification sent to you by the study office. The Office of Student Affairs will also be happy to be your contact for further questions regarding the conditions imposed.
If you are missing more than 30 ECTS credits, enrolment is not possible under certain conditions, as the Bachelor's degree submitted differs significantly from a Bachelor's degree from Paderborn University.
If you would like to check in advance whether you meet the content and formal admission requirements for a degree programme, please send us your overview of grades from your Bachelor's degree to the Student Administration Office.

What is the structure of the course?
Maximum Flexibility: Design Your Own Path
In our four-semester Master’s program in Business Administration, there are no mandatory courses - giving you maximum freedom to tailor your studies to your strengths and career goals.
You decide which courses make it into your personal curriculum. Around half of the total ECTS credits come from core specialization courses in areas such as Management, Taxation, Accounting and Finance, as well as Production, Logistics, and Controlling. For more details, see the section on specialization areas below.
Whether you want to become a specialist by focusing on a specific area, or a generalist by combining topics freely - the flexible structure supports both paths.
You can further shape your business profile with insights from Economics, Business and Economics Education, and Information Systems. Our methods courses enhance your mathematical, economic, and analytical skills - giving you a clear competitive edge in both professional and academic settings.
Your master’s thesis is written in a business field of your choice, providing yet another opportunity to pursue your individual interests and career objectives.
Exemplary Study Plan
The study plan offers you a good orientation about your required and optional modules. However, the chronological order shown here is only an example and may change due to individual focus areas.
Focus Areas
You are free to choose your business administration modules from the following three areas:
Management tasks are extremely diverse. At Paderborn University, we distinguish between two major focus areas: (1) Human Resource Management, Organization, and Leadership and (2) Marketing and Service Management.
In the first area, you will learn how to structure organizations to achieve their goals effectively. This includes, for example, how to build high-performing teams, how to motivate managers to act ethically, how best to define the organizational chart of an international company or how to produce sustainably. You’ll explore these questions using a variety of theories and methods that will help you define objectives, design strategies and actions, and monitor or adapt plans in your future career.
The second area focuses on designing products, services, and interactions that foster long-term customer relationships and create sustainable value. In today’s interconnected world, it’s vital to understand how technological systems reshape
business processes and products—and how customers respond to them. Thus, you’ll often explore themes such as digital business models, social media strategies or innovative marketing methods.
What makes Paderborn unique?
Business Ethics Focus: Paderborn offers a distinctive emphasis on business ethics. Issues like the climate crisis, tax scandals, or fast fashion highlight the importance of viewing economic problems not only through a profit-maximization lens but also from a societal perspective. You can, for example, join the annual Business Ethics Lecture Series in cooperation with Paderborn’s Faculty of Theology or participate in the Social Impact Festival and learn how, as a manager, you can make a
meaningful contribution to a better future.
Entrepreneurship & Start-Up Culture
Paderborn’s dynamic start-up scene, supported by the TecUp Transfer Center and garage33, is another strength. Many modules are designed to help you develop and launch your own business idea.

Through the TAF specialization, you’ll become an expert in the financial reporting and decision-making systems of companies and institutions. While finance and investment focus on securing and strategically allocating financial resources, the areas of taxation and accounting deal with the regulatory obligations companies must fulfill — both under German law and international standards.

Through guest lectures, you’ll have the opportunity to meet professionals from these fields early on. They’ll share insights into their daily work, discuss current challenges in the business world, and demonstrate how they apply the knowledge gained during their studies to real-world situations.
Typical questions you will explore in this focus area
- How is the value of a company or a financial asset determined?
- What does a transparent tax system look like?
- How do taxes influence corporate decisions — and the economy as a whole?
- How do platforms like Facebook affect investor behavior?

Possibilities
Study Abroad
It is important to us that you get to know different cultures and develop your language skills. Decide for yourself which opportunities you would like to take to gain international experience.
Each student has the opportunity to spend a semester abroad. You can choose the perfect place for your exchange semester from around 70 partner universities. Our special focus is the Asian area as well as French and Spanish speaking countries.
You can also gain international experience in Paderborn, even while being at home, so to speak. For example, you can take modules taught in English language. Most of the modules are led by guests from all over the world. You can also take part in a tandem language course or help with the integration of international students. Special highlights, however, are our short-term programs and summer schools. Here, you work in an international team on topics of business and economics for a few days. One example is the International Spring Program with Tohoku University from Japan which has taken place almost every year.
Together with our 9 partner universities in Asia we have established a particularly intensive connection to Asian countries. The core element of our Asian focus is the program in Asian Studies in Business and Economics (ASBE Program).

PhD
Explicitly research-oriented modules are aimed at students who plan to continue their doctoral studies after their Master’s degree. As one of a few faculties in Germany, we offer you an opportunity to study within a structured doctoral program.
Our research thrives on networking and exchange. Various seminar series and workshops enable our young researchers to get to know the research work of guest researchers from all over the world and to present their own work and ideas and develop them further in discussion.
Every two years, the junior researchers leave the familiar university environment for the Faculty Research 365体育_足球比分网￥投注直播官网, so that space is created for new ideas and lectures, discussions and poster sessions can be supplemented with connecting activities.
As part of the TRR 266/ TAF Research Seminar, renowned scholars from around the world present their current research findings. Doctoral students and professors from the department actively participate in these sessions through critical and constructive discussion. This culture of exchange helps refine ongoing research and inspires new research projects.
In preparation for each TRR 266 / TAF Research Seminar, a prep-session is held. This doctoral seminar is designed to facilitate in-depth analysis and discussion of the research paper that will be presented. The goal is to critically examine the research question and chosen methodology, offer suggestions for improvement, and reflect on relevant reference papers. Doctoral students prepare the guest papers in advance, present them in the prep-session, and actively contribute to the academic discourse. This typically takes place one week prior to the corresponding TAF Research Seminar.
The peer mentoring program "Insight!" offers future female graduates the opportunity to exchange ideas about the prospect of a doctorate and to prepare for this. The exchange is accompanied by a PhD graduate who provides tips and strategies for decision-making based on her own experiences. The goal of the program is to offer participants insights into scientific work and to expand their personal and professional skills and development opportunities through the exchange with mentors.
The Faculty of Business Administration and Economics provides students pursuing postgraduate qualifications with support. The team at the Postgraduate Centre will be more than happy to provide you with information and advice.
