HTW Berlin, the largest university of applied sciences in Berlin, offers an 18-month full-time Master’s degree programme in “International and Development Economics” (MIDE), taught entirely in English. Designed for students from developing and transitional countries as well as from Germany and other developed countries with a special interest in the economic challenges facing “third world” countries, the programme prepares students to work in areas related to global economic affairs and development.
The first degree must be equivalent to a three-year German Bachelor’s degree (180 ECTS). It is highly recommended that applicants get in touch with the MIDE office (mide@htw-berlin.de) to find out whether the degree from a foreign country is equivalent.
Applicants with three years of study (180 ECTS) or the equivalent either must study an additional 30 ECTS at the university or prove that they have completed at least one year’s professional employment or training since graduating. Applicants with an equivalent of three and a half or more years (210 ECTS) of study do not need to prove professional experience or take additional modules.
Applicants for a DAAD scholarship must come from a developing country and have at least two years of professional experience since graduation, but should not have graduated more than six years ago.
