M.A. Sustainability Management

Sustainability Management Master’s –sustainable action in companies

Today, companies such as start-ups, SMEs, multinationals, administrations and public institutions are more in demand than ever when it comes to sustainability and responsibility. On the one hand, this offers great opportunities, but at the same time presents many organisations with numerous challenges. It is thus all the more important to establish a comprehensive management system that ensures that environmental and sustainability strategies are implemented, optimised and further developed in a goal-oriented manner. To this end, it’s necessary to analyse existing problems and develop methodical approaches for solving them. The Sustainability Management Master’s programme enables you to actively shape the future of tomorrow as a specialist or manager today.

 

This is what you can expect in your Sustainability Management Master’s

You will gain a deep understanding of the background, methods and interrelationships of sustainability, from both a macro and micro perspective. The modules will enable you to understand the wider political, economic and social impacts, conflicts and potential solutions to sustainability challenges. e.g.:

  • climate change
  • renewable energies
  • sustainable consumption and production
  • biodiversity
  • global economic development
  • inequality and poverty
  • democracy and human rights

 

All of these topics are explored in depth through both self-paced online courses and live online seminars with leading experts in the field of sustainability management.
