Summary
Sustainability and ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) management present a landscape rich in intricacies and perpetual evolution. Various industries, including finance, insurance, real estate, consultancy, and many others, have a growing demand for professionals well-versed in ESG matters. Effective work in the ESG domain necessitates a blend of skills, including the ability to analyse complexity, employ critical thinking, demonstrate high-level interpersonal aptitude, and apply analytical proficiency. These competencies are vital for success in an environment that is rapidly evolving and becoming increasingly intricate.
We offer you a competitive yet challenging 1-year study program to develop skills across different disciplines: Management and Finance.
You will acquire a comprehensive understanding of the dynamics of sustainability and ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) and how to employ analytical and ethical skills and tools to address systemic issues. This includes, for example, challenges related to climate change, poverty, discrimination, and corruption.
While the programme is practical and hands-on, the fundamental aim of the MSc course is to deliver graduates both a solid theoretical underpinning and the ability to apply knowledge to practical problems immediately.
