Finance (Accelerated track)

What EBS Universität für Wirtschaft und Recht says about their program:

Become a leader in the German financial industry. Learn, not far from the German financial metropolis Frankfurt, with the latest didactic methods, in close cooperation with partners from the industry.

The Master in Finance has an impressive third place in the renowned Financial Times Ranking in Germany and is among the top 31 Master in Finance worldwide. This confirms the excellence of the Master in Finance at EBS and underlines our commitment to providing our graduates with a successful career.

Every university degree is an investment. Graduates of the Master in Finance programme can pursue a career as a manager in all areas of finance:

Investment banker, asset manager, CFO, financial analyst, auditor, private equity specialist, alternative investments and real estate finance manager, risk manager, or start your career at the German Central Bank or the ECB.

Our goal to impart knowledge and values has proved successful.

This is underpinned by a strong network of over 12,000 alumni who work in top positions. From Goldman Sachs, JP Morgan, Rothschild, Citi, UBS and many more. The alumni network is always there to support you during and after your studies. As you can see - we are a very big family.

Even we are always impressed by the successful career paths of our graduates:

Benjamin Bilske - Founder and CEO of NAGA Group AG Dr. Wolfgang Fink – CEO of Goldman Sachs for Germany, Austria and Switzerland Jan-Henrik Lafrentz - CFO of Man Truck Marc-Aurel Boersch – CEO Nestlé Germany Hubertus Mühlhäuser – CEO Pontem Martin Krebs – CEO InG-DiBa Prince Maximilian of Liechtenstein - CEO LGT Group Stefan Jekel - Head of International Listings at New York Stock Exchange

The degree programme comprises four semesters (120 ECTS) and integrates intensive cooperation with companies into most courses, in which students work on practice-related projects supervised and coached by our faculty members. In the first semester, in addition to the practical Onboarding Project, the strategic, economic and financial foundations are laid in core modules. The second semester offers you the opportunity to specialise in elective modules and to enhance your practical experience in the Field Project.

You can organise the last two semesters entirely according to your needs: Either through a stay abroad at one of our partner universities (Semester Abroad Track) or through an internship in a company (Practice Track). The last part of the programme is dedicated to your final thesis. With an additional semester abroad in the Semester Abroad Track, you also have the option of obtaining a double degree.

With the Accelerated Track, you have the opportunity to shorten the duration of your studies and complete your Master's degree programme in two semesters (60 ECTS). The prerequisite for this is a Bachelor's degree with 240 ECTS credits or, in the case of a degree with fewer than 240 ECTS credits, corresponding professional experience. Further information can be found in the admission requirements.

Many international students will require a visa to study in Germany, and this is a vital step of your study abroad journey. Make sure you understand the requirements you may need to meet before applying.
