As a student of the Mannheim Master in Management, you can design your studies individually and flexibly according to your preferences. The Business School is home to 6 different areas of research and teaching: Accounting and Taxation, Finance, Information Systems, Management, Marketing and Sales and Operations Management. Each area offers a wide range of courses, so you can choose from a total of more than 120 courses in Business Administration (see module catalog). It is up to you whether you want to specialize in one area or combine courses from different areas.
