1. Admission requirements
The programme is designed for an international student body and therefore we are interested in candidates from both the Northern and Southern hemispheres. Candidates must possess a degree from a recognised university or institution of higher education. Strong quantitative abilities as shown by a background in mathematics or statistics are required, and candidates will have, at least, (the equivalent of) a Bachelor's degree in economics, business and management, engineering, political science or other natural or social sciences. Excellent written and verbal English language skills are also required. Applicants whose first language is not English will be required to take the IELTS Test. Click here for additional information about the IELTS test. A score of 7 or above is required. During the 1st week there will be an English exam.

2. Fees and fellowships
The tuition fee for this programme is Euro 5,000 per year. All candidates are automatically considered for financial assistance. There are a small number of fellowships available for incoming students. These are one-year fellowships, renewable up to four years.
