Enhanced focus on sustainability: Updated Master’s programmes in Marketing and Accounting & Auditing
Kristianstad University’s Master of Science in Marketing and Master of Science in Accounting and Auditing were updated in the autumn of 2024 to place a stronger emphasis on sustainability. The programme director, Christian Koch, provides a quick overview of the updated programmes.
What's new?"
– In autumn 2024, we made significant updates to our Master’s of Science programmes by reinforcing the integration of sustainability and ethics across the curriculum, which is now reflected in the updated programme names. Sustainability is woven into every course, ensuring a comprehensive focus throughout the programme. Additionally, the course content has been refined to offer students greater opportunities for specialisation in areas such as marketing or accounting and auditing.
What career opportunities await our graduates?
– Our programmes opens a wide range of career possibilities. For instance, marketing graduates will not only excel in traditional marketing roles but can also explore exciting career paths such as sustainability marketing manager, brand strategist, social impact consultant, or even pursue entrepreneurship with a sustainable business venture.
Similarly, accounting and auditing graduates will be well-equipped to step into diverse roles beyond traditional accounting and auditing positions. They can consider careers as sustainability accountants, risk and compliance experts.
Moreover, our master´s students have the opportunity to further their academic careers through PhD studies.
