Opening opportunities! We offer twelve advanced Master’s programmes that prepare you for complex tasks in applied fields and research.
Structure of the Master’s Level
The objective of the Master’s Level is to provide advanced academic training in selected subject areas. This involves both theoretical and practical training in each of the core programmes. Through research experiences, you will confront complex academic and practical problems, working independently to develop a clearly defined academic profile.
Close mentoring
Close mentoring in small groups offers an opportunity for personal cooperation with faculty, which ultimately manifests itself in the quality of our Master’s programmes.
English-language Master’s programmes
We offer six Master’s programmes in English: Marketing, Services and Communication Management (MSC), Strategy and International Management, Economics, Quantitative Economics and Finance, Banking and Finance, International Affairs and Governance. The rest of our programmes are taught in German and include some courses taught in English.
Credits
90 ECTS credits are required for the M.A. HSG degree. The Master’s Programme in Law and Economics is an exception and requires 120 ECTS credits. ECTS stands for European Credit Transfer System. One credit point is equivalent to 30 hours of course work at the University of St.Gallen. This includes lectures, independent studies, semester projects and examinations.
