During the part-time master’s degree program Business Psychology & Management you will develop interdisciplinary competencies in the fields of management, business psychology, organizational behavior, and necessary research skills at a master’s level. The program aims to develop an entrepreneurial mindset. Hence, in addition to disciplinary competencies, the program also includes inter- and cross-disciplinary projects. After graduating, you can define sustainable and holistic business psychology and managerial problems and identify, analyze, design, and implement solutions to business-related challenges.

In addition to a well-structured core curriculum, you are offered the flexibility to create a personal development plan that fits your ambitions. The program is designed to meet the needs of working students and people with other occupations who want to prepare themselves for demanding management tasks and further develop themselves personally and professionally.

The program is conducted in English and combines online live sessions and online coaching sessions, offline face-to-face skills labs in Innsbruck (15-20 days over the entire course of study), and flexible self-study phases.
