Programme

The financial services industry lies at the heart of modern economies. At the latest since the arrival of the economic and financial crisis even the average person is aware of the ever increasing sophistication of financial instruments and the growing complexity of the mechanisms prevailing between capital markets and their players.
Some are unsure and you might be asking yourself if the finance industry is the right choice for you.
Because finance is an extremely dynamic sector, it is also a very exciting one. A ”playground” for top players. Traditionally, the financial services industry seeks to recruit the brightest students, and it is still a very attractive destination. Today, there is a great demand not only for top qualified specialists with a broad knowledge base and – it goes without saying – international experience. If you are aiming for sustained success in this challenging and competitive environment, you must be able to offer more:
You need to be able to plan and think in the long term, assess and manage risks, and you must never lose sight of the big picture. The ideal candidate must be capable of rigorously applying theoretical knowledge to practical settings, whether as a manager in a bank, an insurance company, a private equity or venture capital firm, or as manager of a hedge fund. And even in the management consulting industry (restructuring), the public sector, in science and research the specialist Master's graduate will stand out from the crowd.

Emphases/Curriculum

The Master in Finance programme comprises three semesters. The first two semesters are spent at EBS and the third semester is completed at one of EBS' partner universities abroad.

All Master’s programmes at EBS consist of a basic structure and lead to the Master of Science degree. Students are able to follow either a generalist route or select a specialist path to deepen their knowledge in a particular area.

In all programmes students have the opportunity to acquire in-depth knowledge in selected specializations, gain international experience through studying abroad, and take advantage of EBS extensive business, social and professional networks.

Practical relevance

In the MSc programme students analyse and question real business decisions, thus an understanding of practical business conditions and of the outcomes when applying concepts and theories is important. Our lecturers guide the students to understand and improve professional practice.
The EBS teaching concept links the students' practical experience with the theoretical framework. To this end we involve experts from the business world in our teaching and develop topics for seminar papers and Master’s theses in cooperation with leading companies.
Our teaching concept itself is regularly evaluated by corporate representatives and academics from outside EBS. The combination of theoretical knowledge and practical application reinforced by a compulsory work placement of a minimum of 6 weeks is crucial to success in leading positions in a global marketplace.
