Intercultural Communication and Business (Master)

with a focus on French or Spanish

The four-semester Master's degree program "Intercultural Communication and Business" with a focus on French or Spanish combines language, culture, business and research. Business studies content does not complement the Romance studies program; instead, the focus is on the interfaces between linguistics and cultural studies, language practice and business.

Students have the opportunity to focus either on professional practice or on a research orientation. This prepares them for a career in business enterprises, the communications sector and the cultural sector as well as for a doctorate.
They acquire in-depth expertise in linguistics and literary studies as well as in the cultural and regional studies of their chosen specialization (French or Spanish). In the field of economics, they complete modules such as strategic corporate management, controlling or finance. Students benefit not only from the interdisciplinary, but also from the international orientation of the Institute of Romance Studies. The content is predominantly taught in French or Spanish.
