Program Description

Today, human resources have achieved a powerful position because they provide a decisive competitive advantage. Keywords such as shortage of skilled workers, digitalization of work, changed work-life balance demands of Generation Y, (gender) diversity, sustainable employee management, the discussion about scandals and leadership ethics, and much more dominate the headlines.

All areas are embedded in a global strategy and influenced by strong competition, especially for the best talents. Every manager has to face all these aspects and challenges in these times. Do you want to talk to fellow students about practical solutions? Then the English-language Master’s program Human Resources Management & Leadership at CBS International Business School is ideally suited for you and opens up career opportunities for you in middle and senior management.

In addition to current research and management knowledge, you will shine with team and integration skills, multilingualism, and high application expertise.

Master Thesis: During your 4th semester you are working on your Master thesis. You have 19 weeks to complete your thesis and the subject is freely selectable. A supervisor from CBS will support you and you can write the thesis in collaboration with a company as well. Or you can write your thesis in connection with a stay abroad.

Internship or Study Abroad: You can choose between an internship (lasting at least eight weeks) or a semester abroad at one of our partner universities.

Learning Outcomes

  • For you to best apply your knowledge after graduation, the practical reference during your studies at CBS provides a unique advantage. A business project, a business simulation game and an internship at a company in Germany or abroad help prepare you for a career in the real world.
  • You will learn how to convince investors, partners and managing directors in the Innovation Lab - Business Plan Writing and Pitching and advance skills in the Capstone Simulation Game. In this digital business game, you take business decisions with your team and put your business know-how into practice.
  • For many of our students, the practical relevance is also of interest when composing their Master’s thesis. This is because the work you write in the fourth semester is often written within the framework of an internship. Alternatively, you have the opportunity to write your thesis as part of a semester abroad.
