Double Degree Program
Master students with the major Marketing and the minor Finance or Information Systems can obtain a double degree awarded by the University of Münster and the University of Groningen (Rijksuniversiteit Groningen). The Rijksuniversiteit Groningen belongs to the top universities in The Netherlands and Europe.
The double degree program enables students to obtain a degree from both universities without an extension of study. At the same time it allows them to gain experience in a foreign country. If you are studying in Münster and you opt for the double degree program you will spend the first year of the master's degree course in Münster and the second in Groningen. Your master's thesis will be supervised by two persons – one person from the MCM and the other one from the Marketing department in Groningen.
