M.Sc. Business Mathematics — Specialization Modules

Modules totaling 18 LP must be selected in this area of study. At least one mathematics or economics seminar must be completed. If modules in economics are also completed, these must be assigned to the focus that was also selected in the area of "Modules in Economics" (Accounting and Finance ("AF"), Information and Innovation Management ("II"), Market-Oriented Management ("MU") or Economics ("VWL")). Of the modules on computer science ("Inf"), a maximum of one module can be taken.
