Bachelor International Business, B.A. (English Track)

About the course

A business degree taught 100% in English on the English track, covering general management and international business, with one or two semesters abroad at more than 70 partner universities and three or more internships of about 10 weeks each. Teaching is in small groups at the Munich campus.

Entry requirements for Irish students

• Munich Business School requires a school-leaving qualification that allows university study in Bavaria, so German recognition rules apply: the Leaving Cert gives direct entry with six general subjects, at least two at Higher Level H5 or better and the other four at O6/H6 or better, including two languages and Maths at O5/H6 or better. For business courses you also need Higher Level Maths at H5 or better. LCA and LCVP are not accepted. MBS publishes no Leaving Cert-specific rule, so confirm your subject mix with admissions.
• Selection is by online application (school reports, motivation letter, CV, English proof) followed by a personal interview of about 45 minutes covering your study motivation, a short presentation and discussion, and your questions. You can apply before your Leaving Cert results using your three most recent school reports.
• English: TOEFL iBT 85, IELTS 6.5 Academic, Duolingo 115, Cambridge B2 First (grade B), PTE 56 or equivalent, taken within the last two years. The test can be waived for applicants who completed their schooling in English; Leaving Cert holders should confirm with admissions that this covers them.
