Introduction
As a student of the programme, you benefit from the expertise of two top universities and enjoy the advantages offered by the interdisciplinary approach. You study at each university for one year and will graduate with two master's degrees: a Master of Science in Health Economics from the University of Cologne and a Master of Science in Healthcare Policy, Innovation and Management from Maastricht University. The programme is integrated into these degree programmes and incorporates courses from both. It is based on recognition of credit points and includes a master's thesis, which you will write during your second year of studies, combined with a placement.
The international master's programme focuses on how to approach current and future healthcare challenges through innovation. You develop an interdisciplinary understanding of management, economics and innovation in the sector on a national or international scale. On completion of this programme, you will be able to apply economic concepts to medical questions and actively address the challenges of today's complex and rapidly changing healthcare sector with innovative approaches.
