DegreeMaster's Programme in Accounting, 120 Credits
One or two year Degree
Students may choose to finish the program already after one year with a Degree of Master of Science, Major in Business Administration, Specialization in Accounting/Finance/Business Development and Internationalization/Management/Marketing (60 ECTS credits). This is something they do not have to decide until the 15th of October during their first semester at the program. Graduating with a one year degree after one year does not prevent the students to still continue on the second year of the program for also a two years degree.
If students continue the full two years they will graduate with a Degree of Master of Science, Major in Business Administration, Specialization in Accounting/Finance/Business Development and Internationalization/Management/Marketing (120 ECTS credits).
Note! If you wish to study two of our Master’s Programs in Business Administrations with two different specializations it is not possible to get two degrees on the same level. For example you cannot get a Degree of Master of Science, Major in Business Administration, Specialization in Accounting 120 ECTS credits and a Degree of Master of Science, Major in Business Administration, Specialization in Finance 120 ECTS credits. This is because you cannot get two degrees in the same level in the same major subject (Business Administration) even if they have two different specializations.
It is however possible to get a one year degree from one Master’s program and a two years degree from another of our Master’s programs for example a Degree of Master of Science, Major in Business Administration, Specialization in Accounting 60 ECTS credits and a Degree of Master of Science, Major in Business Administration, Specialization in Finance 120 ECTS credits.
