About the programme

The Business Consulting Master's at Hochschule Harz is taught in English and prepares you for work in the consulting industry, whether at one of the large strategy firms or a small boutique. If you earned your Bachelor's in business or economics outside Germany with at least 180 ECTS, you take the four-semester track: it opens with an integration semester, followed by two subject semesters and a final semester for the Master's examination. This track starts every winter semester. A central part of the course is a real consulting project. From your first subject semester you and your classmates handle acquisition, planning, delivery and the final presentation, guided by experienced mentors. Teaching happens in small, diverse groups, and guest talks by consulting experts help you make first industry contacts. It suits business graduates who want hands-on consulting practice.
