One program: two degrees
WHU’s Double Degree Program is the perfect match for those who are ambitious, driven and willing to take on an extra challenge.
After two semesters here and two more at our partner university, you will earn a full second degree (either an MBA or a Master of Science) in addition to a Master of Science degree from WHU. Another big benefit is the added international experience - not only will you have lived and studied for a whole year in another country, but you will also have gained valuable business and cultural insights, and soft skills that are relevant in today's globalized world.
Applicants to our Master of Science Programs are encouraged to secure their places in our Double Degree Program by applying before they start their Master of Science Program at WHU.
