Sound knowledge of business administration is often the prerequisite for a Master's programme in the field of management. However, many interested students do not meet the admission requirements with their Bachelor's programme.

The compact preparatory semester enables you to qualify for the diverse Master's programme at ISM. It doesn't matter in which field you have completed your Bachelor's degree: we make you fit for the Master's!

In the one-semester Pre-Master, students with non-economic Bachelor degrees receive a sound business education at university level. The programme has been specially tailored to the needs of prospective managers so that they are optimally prepared for a Master's degree in business administration.

In addition to the basic principles of business administration, accounting and quantitative methods, students also learn about human resource management and international marketing.

The International School of Management (ISM) numbers among Germany’s leading private business schools and is continually placed at the forefront of all applicable university rankings. The ISM has campuses in Dortmund, Frankfurt/Main, Munich, Hamburg, Cologne, Stuttgart, and Berlin. At the nationally recognized, not-for-profit private university, tomorrow’s leaders are trained in compact and praxis-relevant degree programs that prepare them to work in internationally-oriented business enterprises. All degree programs at the ISM are distinguished by their internationality and praxis orientation. Projects in small groups are as much a regular part of university life as integrated semesters of study abroad and international modules at one of over 180 partner universities of the ISM.

The ISM has seven locations in Germany. In the immediate vicinity of attractive companies and economic regions, there are many opportunities for cooperation. Whether in the far north or the deep south of the country – students benefit from close contact with local employers. ISM students are also well integrated into their home campus. Small learning groups guarantee a personal atmosphere and promote exchange between students and professors. Paris, London, New York, or Shanghai – ISM will take you abroad. Around 190 partner universities worldwide are currently part of ISM‘s cooperation network – this is one of the largest networks of all universities in Germany.

On September 2019 the ISM established a campus in Berlin. The campus is located in the heart of Berlin Schöneberg and combines culture, cosmopolitanism and innovation. As the capital of Germany, Berlin is an important international business metropolis and political center. Therefore, the city is an attractive location for companies from all sectors.
