The degree is that of a Master of Science (MSc) in Business Administration. The studies comprise a deepening of already acquired business-related knowledge and, consequently, preliminary business studies are a prerequisite. The general requirement is the completion of a BSc degree in business studies at a recognised university, preferably with a first-class grade. Work experience will also be a factor when selecting students for the programme. Graduates in fisheries science who have completed four year BSc studies can also gain access to the programme. Those who have completed a Baccalaureus programme in another field of study are required to have completed 66 credits of core subjects in business studies in order to be able to embark upon a Master's programme in Business Administration at the faculty.
