Special features
Integration Finance & Accounting
The most important special feature of our program is the integration of the sub-areas "Finance" and "Accounting", in contrast to programs that concentrate on one of the two areas at a time. In professional practice, both areas are strongly linked anyway, since every investment or financing decision ("Finance") has a feedback effect on corporate reporting ("Accounting"). This gives our graduates a broader knowledge base from which they can benefit when they start their careers.
Practical relevance
Our Master's students appreciate the high level of practical relevance in the lectures, which is not only provided by our full-time teaching professors. External lecturers from the private sector (e.g. BASF, SAP, Deloitte, E&Y,...) enrich the lectures with integrated exercises, case studies and seminars, which give our students the opportunity to test the practical relevance of what they have learned. Furthermore, these contacts not infrequently lead to a first career start or a voluntary internship.
Study abroad
Internationality is very important to us at the University of Applied Sciences Ludwigshafen. Therefore, you have the option of spending the third semester of your studies at one of our partner universities. The study achievements there will be credited to you under certain conditions.
Double Degree
With a double degree you take an important step towards an international career. In addition to deepening your professional knowledge, you will get to know the culture, mentality and language of the host country and prove that you can independently find your way around in a foreign environment. Our Master Finance & Accounting currently offers two double degree programs in Australia:
Further double degree programs in Europe are being planned.
Working in small groups
Every winter semester, approximately 25 students start the Master's program in Finance & Accounting. This means that you benefit from working in small groups and from the opportunity to get to know all your lecturers personally, thus increasing your personal added value through the more intensive contact.
