Mannheim Master in Management Double Degree Program

The Double Degree Program between the University of Mannheim and Bocconi University was a formative time for me – both academically and personally. Two years, two countries, two universities. I was not only able to deepen my knowledge in the areas of Marketing and Management but also learn how to navigate new cultures and academic systems. Beyond my studies, I met many inspiring people, grew personally and learned to quickly adapt to new environments. The combination of theory, practice, and international experience challenged and shaped me in a very positive way – an experience that I can wholeheartedly recommend to anyone.

The Double Degree with CBS has been a truly rewarding experience. The courses in Copenhagen are very applied and often taught in small, interactive classes, which makes it easy to engage with the content and learn from both professors and fellow students. I especially appreciated the technical focus of the program, which gave me practical tools to understand how businesses use IT to drive innovation. And beyond academics, living in Copenhagen has been a highlight – it’s a city full of life, with relaxed, open-minded people and a great quality of life. I’d definitely recommend this program to anyone looking for a mix of academic depth and real-world perspective.

Through the Double Degree Program between the University of Mannheim and ESSEC Business School, I have the unique opportunity to earn two master’s degrees from two of the top business schools in Europe. The University of Mannheim supports me in every respect—whether it's realizing my own projects, such as founding a student association, or through outstanding academic guidance. I benefit not only from the expertise of excellent professors but also from highly personalized support. Even though I am currently completing my second master’s degree in Paris, I still feel closely connected to the University of Mannheim. The close exchange with fellow students, the Double Degree team at the Business School Dean’s Office, and the faculty makes me feel truly supported throughout the program.

What excited me most about the Double Degree between the University of Mannheim and LUISS University in Rome was the ability to set a strong focus on sustainability—a topic that is personally very important to me. The first year of the Double Degree is spent in Mannheim, where the MMM program impressed me with its great flexibility, high-quality courses, and wide range of electives. This makes the program well-suited both for students who want to explore different areas before choosing a focus, and for those who already have a clear specialization in mind. The experience in Mannheim is perfectly complemented by the practice-oriented courses and the intensive exchange with international students during the second year of the Master’s program at LUISS University in Rome. As a place to study, Rome offers an outstanding quality of life and a rich cultural experience.

The Double Degree Program at the University of Mannheim with NCCU was an incredibly enriching experience. Life in Taiwan pushed me out of my comfort zone and helped me grow both personally and professionally. I gained a truly global perspective and formed lasting relationships along the way. An unforgettable experience!”

One key factor in my decision to choose the MMM program was definitely the Double Degree option. It gave me the opportunity to benefit from a unique combination of the flexibility of the Mannheim curriculum and the in-depth specializations offered by the Norwegian School of Economics (NHH). The contrast between the two different academic cultures was a welcome change. In addition, the international student community and the broad alumni networks on both sides helped me build valuable friendships and professional connections.

What stands out most to me about the MMM program is its strong international focus and vibrant community. My personal highlight was studying in Canada as part of the double degree program. The close exchange with fellow students from around the world greatly broadened my horizons and led to friendships that go far beyond the academic experience. For anyone looking to grow in an international environment and become part of a global network, the MMM offers outstanding opportunities.

The Double Degree program with the University of South Carolina is a truly international experience. Studying at USC alongside students and faculty from all over the world in a practical, case-based learning environment perfectly complemented my academic foundation from Mannheim. Outside the classroom, USC offers everything you’d expect from a classic American college experience—football games, student clubs, and a vibrant campus community—all in a location that’s perfect for exploring the Southern US. Thus, I would highly recommend this program to anyone looking to build a strong foundation for a global career.
