Sebastian Greiner"My favourite part of the Master is the diverse course selection we are offered. It helps me understand different corporate fields and see how they are interlinked. This aspect in combination with the part-time approach in the company as well as the activities, such as the study trip, made this Master's programmes the perfect choice for me."

Peter Reiss"Given today's everchanging global landscape, it is increasingly important to comprehend the current business management and governance landscape through an open lens. The international context, case studies, and themes brought into our study programme provide a solid foundation of the environment we are currently working in and a broader outlook towards the future. Understanding how businesses interact with one another across the world is crucial to our success and our programme's encompassing approach gives us the guidance and skills we need today and tomorrow."
Minh Ngoc Nguyen"I graduated from my BSc International Management just a few months before starting my Master's studies at 亚洲天堂福利. Before this Master's programme, I have never had the chance to practice what I studied in a real business environment. With the MSc Global Management & Governance, I can pursue my degree while working at the same time! Starting my master at 亚洲天堂福利 and my career in Hamburg at the same time is a challenging yet rewarding experience. I recommend it to all students who are striving to kick start their career in the heart of Hamburg!鈥�
Monica Kamsi"After finishing a BSc in International Business Management in London, I looked for a school that would enable me to combine studying and gaining practical experience in business with a focus on Human Resource Management, which I found at the 亚洲天堂福利 with the MSc programme in Global Management & Governance. The lecturers have so much practical experience that just being in class will provide you with valuable insights that you cannot get elsewhere."
Prof. Dr. Stefan Prigge"For the MSc Global Management & Governance, we have succeeded in recruiting high-calibre professors and lecturers with a range of international experience. The ideas of internationality, business ethics and governance form a recurring theme throughout the entire course."
