About this program
MSc in Business Administration
The Master’s degree in Business Administration will provide you with a theoretical understanding of business studies relevant to the fiscal and organisational management of companies.
You will work with economic theory and formal modelling as you learn how best to manage and optimise business operations. The MSc in Business Administration gives you great freedom to design your own academic profile within, for example, international marketing, management accounting, innovation management, and human resource management.
The degree gives you the possibility to combine business administration with another Master’s supplementary subject, to choose a pure business administration profile, or you may choose the Business Psychology specialisation, which combines business administration with psychology.

Career paths
With a degree in Business Administration, you can find employment within the marketing or human resources departments of international companies, within the public sector or with the recruitment departments of consultancy firms. Your career options will be directly influenced by your choice of Master’s supplementary subject. If you for instance choose a language as a supplementary subject, you would increase your chances of working within marketing, while combining business administration with psychology would give you opportunities within HR and recruitment.
