What can you expect from Strategy and Managerial Accounting?

Strategy and Managerial Accounting focuses on how firms formulate, implement and (re)evaluate their strategy in order to reach the firm’s short-term as well as long-term objectives. Our graduates understand the role of strategic and operational controlling tools in managerial decision-making, and apply them in different contexts and to various problems. To prepare our graduates for the changing demands of the labor market, our program focuses on three complementary pillars:

• Expertise: Students become experts content wise, and learn to apply their knowledge to specific real-life problems.
• Academic Attitude: Students are trained in making evidence-based decisions, challenging assumptions critically, and making sound judgements based on limited information.
• Managerial Skills: Students develop project management, leadership, teamwork and networking skills. The program supports them in developing a future-oriented mindset: Students learn about ethical and sustainable business conduct to be able to embrace their future responsibilities as a socially responsible global citizen.
