About the course

A Bachelor of Arts in Management with a specialisation in Business Psychology, combining business administration with psychology applied to work and organisations. It runs over six semesters (180 ECTS) in Berlin or Munich, and the fifth semester is an internship at a company of your choice.

Entry requirements for Irish students

  • Macromedia asks for a recognised school-leaving certificate that gives entry to higher education, with official equivalency approval for certificates from outside Bavaria. It publishes no specific Leaving Cert rule, so German rules apply: six subjects, at least two at Higher Level with H5 or better, the other four at O6/H6 or better, including two languages and Maths at O5/H6 or better. As a management (business) degree, German rules also ask for Higher Level Maths at H5. LCA and LCVP are not accepted. Confirm with admissions before you apply.
  • No numerus clausus, entrance test or portfolio. You apply online with your school certificate, a CV, a motivation letter and a copy of your passport or ID card.
  • English: the university lists TOEFL iBT 72, IELTS 6.0 or Burlington VTest as accepted proof. It does not say whether Leaving Cert English is accepted instead, so check with admissions.

How to apply

  1. Check your Leaving Cert subjectsConfirm your subjects and levels meet the German entry rules, including Higher Level Maths at H5 for business.
  2. Get English proofAsk admissions whether Leaving Cert English is enough; if not, book TOEFL iBT (72), IELTS (6.0) or Burlington VTest.
  3. Apply onlineSend the online application with your Leaving Cert results, CV, motivation letter, passport or ID and English proof. For October 2027, apply by late September 2027 at the latest (2026 cycle pattern); earlier is safer.
  4. Accept and prepareIf accepted, complete enrolment, pay the EUR 699 registration fee and sort out housing in Berlin or Munich before the 1 October start.
Deadline for Irish/EU applicants: Two intakes a year: 1 October (winter) and 1 April (summer). For October 2026 the programme page says to apply by 30 September; the admissions page lists 1 October and 1 April as deadlines. 2027 deadlines are not yet published, so apply early and confirm..

Costs

  • EUR 6,000 per semester (EUR 12,000 a year) plus a one-off registration fee of EUR 699, per Macromedia’s international price list for winter term 2026. Prices are subject to change. Macromedia is a private, state-recognised university, so Germany’s tuition-free rule for public universities does not apply.
This is a management degree with a psychology specialisation, not a general psychology degree, so it does not lead to work as a psychologist. It costs EUR 12,000 a year at a private university.
