Master of Business Administration (MBA) European Management
European Management
The postgraduate MBA study Programme “European Management” at Saarland University has a long history. When it was introduced in 1990, it was the first study programme at a German university leading to a MBA degree.
The European integration implicates various changes. For managers as for employees, these changes mean both opportunity and challenge: the opportunity is to discover the diversity of the member states and to be fascinated by their country-specific attributes; the challenge is to use these differences successfully in the background of entrepreneurial objectives. Our MBA programme “European Management” is therefore convinced that a modern formation of managers should not only impart professional knowledge but also the cultural diversity as a framework requirement. People should always be the focus of every business relationship.
Our MBA programme “European Management” is attractive to a wide target audience including practitioners, international graduates, and academics.
It can be completed in full-time or part-time and offers 15 courses taught in English, usually set from Wednesday to Saturday, and related to the following main modules: Management Basics, European Basics, Financial Management, Marketing and Management, Operations Management and Behavioural Management.
Up to three of the 15 classes are offered as “International Weeks” at other European universities of our choice.
Our MBA courses are held by distinguished professors from renowned universities from Germany and other European countries. Field trips and other events help to deepen and apply theoretical knowledge and to socially interact with other students, practitioners, and academics.

Master of Business Administration (MBA) Entrepreneurship & Innovation
Entrepreneurship & Innovation
The postgraduate MBA programme “Entrepreneurship & Innovation” at Saarland University’s Europa-Institut will launch in the winter semester of 2026/2027. It builds on the institution’s long-standing tradition as one of the first higher-education institutions in Germany to offer MBA education. With this programme, Saarland University further advances its profile as an “Entrepreneurial University” and closely integrates the degree programme into the Triathlon ecosystem for entrepreneurship, innovation and knowledge transfer.
Digitalisation, emerging technologies and dynamic markets are transforming business models in increasingly shorter cycles. For founders as well as managers in established companies, these changes present both opportunities and challenges: they involve identifying new business ideas and embracing the potential of agile methods such as design thinking and prototyping; the challenge lies in systematically testing and validating these ideas and translating them into viable, competitive business models. Our MBA programme in “Entrepreneurship & Innovation” therefore combines the teaching of sound business and management knowledge with an entrepreneurial mindset as its guiding framework. People and their innovative capacity are at the heart of every new venture.
The programme is primarily designed as a full-time course of study and comprises 15 courses taught in English, which generally take place from Wednesday to Saturday.
Our MBA courses are delivered by distinguished professors from renowned universities in Germany and other European countries. Field trips and other events help students deepen and apply their theoretical knowledge while engaging socially with fellow students, practitioners and academics.
Our MBA programme “Entrepreneurship & Innovation” is attractive to a wide range of target groups, including founders, intrapreneurs in established companies, and international graduates from all academic disciplines with initial professional experience.
Why our MBA Entrepreneurship & Innovation?
Participants in our MBA Entrepreneuship & Innovation:
- Systematically develop business ideas and translate them into viable business models—from the initial idea and the Business Model Canvas through to market validation.
- Drive innovation using agile methods by applying design thinking, prototyping and agile project management in a practical setting to rapidly test and further develop new products and services.
- Build and apply sound business and management competencies for entrepreneurial decision-making—using financial management, marketing, operations and data analytics purposefully in start-up and innovation projects.
- Lead entrepreneurially and manage innovation processes—whether as founders of their own start-up or as “intrapreneurs” responsible for innovation projects within established organisations.
