Intro til uddannelsen

All modern companies must navigate in an increasingly complex field: They must be both innovative, sustainable, ethically sound and employee friendly, all the while thriving as a business. If you want to contribute to tackling these challenges and make a difference for businesses of the future, a Master in Business Administration and Leadership (cand.merc.) is the right education for you.
Faglig profil
In this interdisciplinary programme you will be working with leadership, management, and organisation in companies in a modern context. You will gain in-depth knowledge of relevant scientific theories and methods in the field of business leadership and management, including companies’ strategy, organisation, management, economics, innovation, and value creation.
Throughout the programme we have an integrated focus on business ethics and sustainability perspectives.
We also acknowledge the situational and relational perspective of leadership and organisational challenges, and we train you to critically reflect on the variety of complex dilemmas, that companies might find themselves in. You will learn how to analyse the circumstances a business operates in and how to act on your findings, including analysing organisational processes, implementing strategies, developing business plans, evaluating investments, and conducting financial accounts. In short, we will prepare you for the multifaceted challenges faced by modern businesses.
The study allows you to shape your own profile both through a broad selection of optional courses and through the project work. Regardless of your choices, we expect you to engage in your studies and take advantage of your possibilities to create your own academic profile.
Additionally, it is possible to spend a semester doing an international exchange or an internship in a company or organisation. An internship is an opportunity to combine education with real business experience and expand your academic network while studying.
Din hverdag på studiet
You will join an international study environment, with both students and faculty from all over the world. If you join us from abroad, you will get to know many Danish students through courses taught jointly (in English) between the international and Danish business programme. You will meet an academic staff with a wide variety of backgrounds and a research focus in leadership and organising, service innovation, ethics, CSR and sustainability and tourism. You will work closely with the researchers through lectures, seminars, and supervisor meetings, where small groups work together on real-life problems. Through the programme, you will meet different companies and work with their challenges, both through projects, field trips and panel debates with external experts and leaders.
The learning environment at Roskilde University requires you to lead and motivate yourself, and most importantly, to cooperate with others. The close teamwork ensures the foundation for a strong academic network, and the programme provides rich opportunities to organise and attend both academic and social events. Regardless of your background, you will be challenged to broaden your perspective and learn new skills.
Karriere og kompetencer
As a graduate in Business Administration and Leadership you have a wide range of job opportunities in areas like organisational and leadership development, HRM, innovation, change management, CSR, business analysis, project management, finance, accounting, marketing, communication, and business consulting. You can find work at the management levels of both private and public companies, in analytical institutions documenting business developments, and in public authorities regulating business and enterprise issues. The programme also qualifies you to enter a PhD-programme.

Kandidat på Roskilde Universitet - hvorfor det?
Du bliver en del af et stærkt fagmiljø, hvor du er tæt på forskerne, i dialog om alt fra faglige problemstillinger, mulige metoder og teorier, veje til at skabe nye indsigter og dine ønsker til faglig retning for din kandidatuddannelse. Du bliver en del af et socialt miljø typisk centreret i én bygning på campus, hvor forskere og studerende arbejder dør om dør. Du kommer til at studere inden for universitetets projektform, hvor identifikation af en problemstilling, dybdegående analyser, valg og implementering af metodisk tilgang, samt opstilling af en stærkt teoretisk ramme er dit ansvar under faglig vejledning fra en forsker. Du kommer til at deltage i en række kurser, som udvider dine metodiske og teoretiske viden. I løbet af et semester vil du opstille et væsentligt problem inden for dit fag og udvikle viden til at fremstille videnskabelige argumenter for løsningsmulighed(er). Du får konkret erfaring med den hele videnskabelige proces.
