Master's degree programme in Banking and Financial Management (01.10.2008)

Description

Students prepare their exposé in the semester prior to the thesis writing Semester, hence an additional extracurricular module in the third semester was created, called “Preparatory Thesis Workshop”. The advantage of the new structure is that exposés are reviewed more objectively by the team of lecturers of the master’s degree programme and not just by two assigned tutors, as previously the case. During the third semester, students develop their exposé in a guided structure including a personal feedback by the team of lecturers.
