Admission requirements and deadlines
This is what you need for the first check of your registration:
(more details you will find under Documents to be submitted)
- Curriculum vitae (CV)
- A successfully completed bachelor's degree (transcript of records), comprising at least 180 ECTS points (for the Fast Track option 210 ECTS points), or
- An equivalent course of study at a university or university of applied sciences or a foreign university of equivalent level, and
- at least 30 ECTS points in the fields of business sciences, business psychology, or media and communication studies.
- If you have not studied for a Bachelor's degree in economics or if your quantitative ECTS points are not sufficient, you can prepare yourself for your management studies with the ISM Pre-Master (goes for 1 semester and you receive 30 ECTS points).
- Qualified professional experience or internships can be used to compensate for a lack of field-specific ECTS points. Field-specific activities include those in the areas of marketing, sales, retail, purchasing, and logistics:
Marketing, in particular market research
Brand or Retail Management
Trade and distribution
Logistics.
