Master's in Sustainable Management & Technology (MSMT)

["Shape the future of businesses with cutting-edge expertise in innovative biotechnologiesIncreasing social interest in sustainability-oriented business, changes in consumer behaviour toward renewable and regenerative products, political agreements and regulations with stricter environmental and climate targets have created a market where companies are now, more than ever, in demand to master the technological change toward climate-neutral and sustainable resource and technology management.This structural change requires specialists with a business education based on sustainable concepts as well as knowledge in energy and process technology, biotechnology, and material sciences in order to be able to redesign internal company production processes towards resource-saving and sustainable supply chains. This also includes approaches to circular economy. The aim is to develop holistic approaches for the comprehensive use of renewable raw materials and waste and to be able to evaluate and optimise these in terms of their benefits. In addition, a global perspective is necessary, since companies are in international competition and should be enabled to contribute to the achievement of global sustainability goals.Professors, researchers, and students focus on the use of renewable resources and the development of sustainable technologies as well as on their economic implementation. The focus of their work is research and teaching on cultivation, chemical-material use, and energy recovery as well as on economic aspects related to the production, marketing, and use of renewable raw materials.The interdisciplinary Master’s programme in Sustainable Management and Technology bridges the gap between business and technical areas of enterprise. Additionally, it trains the leaders of tomorrow’s sustainable economy to understand and shape entrepreneurial developments and their impact on society and the economy in the necessary depth and complexity."]
