Our Master's program in International Economics and Management – IEM for short – offers you a wide range of opportunities for living internationalization.
Our compulsory modules are taught in English. With regard to the further module selection during your studies, you are free to decide whether you want to fill your study plan only with modules taught in English language or to also include modules taught in German language. But it is not only through the modules taught in English language that you can improve your language skills and gain international experience. In addition, numerous partner universities as well as various cooperations around the world offer you the opportunity to spend a semester abroad, take part in a double-degree program, summer schools or short-term programs. More than one third of our students, thus your fellow students, come from abroad. In a weekly forum, we encourage cross-cultural exchange through social events, excursions, and exciting lectures.
We provide you with the necessary theoretical and methodological knowledge to answer the question of how global markets actually work, what influence they have on organizations and how a company can position itself successfully in these markets. At the same time the study plan offers a high degree of flexibility to enable you to tailor the program to your individual interests by establishing a focus in the fields of economics and management. This opens the door to leading and strategically oriented management positions in internationally operating companies, organizations and research institutions.

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.
Assumed start of studies: winter semester
Focus Areas
The Master’s program “International Economics and Management” covers a wide spectrum of subjects and opens up the possibility of a variety of internationally oriented career paths. In order to make possible profiling within the degree program even more visible to the outside world, there is the option of choosing an informal study track within the master’s program. In order to obtain a study track, it is necessary to complete modules totaling 30 ECTS from the list of available modules corresponding to the chosen specialization as well as to write a study track specific master thesis.
Students who choose the track Data Science in Economics acquire theoretical knowledge of modern statistical and econometric methods and gain hands-on skills and experience in processing, analyzing and visualizing structured or unstructured data. Special emphasis is placed on methods of causal analysis, prediction of economic and financial data, Big Data and Statistical Learning, and the acquisition and application of programming skills in R, Stata, or Python. Students also learn to understand the economic value of data and how to interpret and effectively communicate the results of their analyses.
Data Scientists are highly sought after by companies in all industries as well as public institutions, especially when they combine technical skills with a sound knowledge of statistical principles and economic reasoning. In addition to excellent earning and career opportunities in the private sector, graduates with a specialization in Data Science in Economics have all the skills and knowledge necessary for a successful career in an empirically oriented field of academia such as an empirical dissertation in economics.
In an ever-evolving global economy, shaped by challenges such as advancing digital connectivity, increasing scarcity of natural resources, the impacts of climate change, the transition to renewable energies, and demographic shifts, economies face profound transformation processes. Given these dynamics, it is crucial to develop economic policy frameworks and strategies that, through a high degree of adaptability and resilience, ensure the long-term functionality of sustainable markets and institutions.
Students in the "Sustainable Economics" track learn to integrate sustainability challenges into a consistent economic analysis framework and evaluate alternative solutions. In particular, students explore how methods from behavioral economics can help refine the understanding of cause-and-effect relationships and develop evidence-based solutions.
The "Sustainable Economics" track opens up diverse career opportunities for students. Graduates apply their acquired skills both in research at universities and research institutions, as well as in economic policy consulting within companies, international organizations, or public institutions.

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). Taking part in this program, you can gain profound knowledge of the Asian economic area, focus on Asian culture and spend half a year at one of our partner universities in China, Korea or Japan.
You study simultaneously at Paderborn University and at Tohoku University in Japan. The first and fourth semesters take place in Paderborn, whereas you complete semesters two and three in Japan. Thus, you can obtain a master’s degree in M. Sc. International Economics and Management (IEM) at Paderborn University as well as the Global Program in Economics and Management (GPEM) at Tohoku University, within the standard study period of four semesters. In preparation for the stay abroad, participation in an intensive Japanese language course is mandatory.
Learn more about the Double Master Program with Tohoku University.
The forum offers international and German students a platform for communication and exchange. Our members meet regularly for social activities, excursions and interesting discussions and thus get to know each other and different cultures.

Within our study programs we combine theory and practice. In addition to numerous modules in which theory-based teaching content alternates with practical work phases such as project work, case studies or business games and workshops, we rely on close cooperation with local companies and institutions. Our partners contribute to our modules with an application-oriented input by giving guest lectures, taking over teaching content as well as defining problems and accompanying and evaluating their processing.
