Admission requirements
The formal requirements are met by candidates who hold a state-recognised university degree from a domestic or foreign university and have knowledge and skills in the core areas of financial accounting or bookkeeping, annual financial statements and balance sheets, cost and performance accounting or controlling, as well as investment and financing.
With the master's degree programme, 90 credit points can be earned. For the master's degree, which also includes the right to pursue a doctorate, a total of 300 credit points are required. Since the master's degree programme only comprises 90 credit points, applicants who bring an equivalent of fewer than 210 credit points from their first degree must make up the missing credit points before graduating with the master's degree. Admission in this case is only granted on the condition that the missing credit points are demonstrated before the completion of the master's programme.
