MA/MS in Arbeit - Organisation - Gesellschaft

The master's programme Work, Organisation, Society looks at how the world of work is changing, for example in the relationship between paid work and private life, in how organisations are structured and in how employment is regulated. It is based at the Duisburg campus. The course offers a sound sociological education with additions from economics. Students learn to carry out their own empirical analyses and to apply scientific findings in practice, whether in designing workplaces or in regulating work beyond the single company. Entry normally requires a bachelor's degree in sociology from the university or a comparable degree in sociology, social sciences or economics of at least three years, with a substantial share of economics or social science content. The examination board decides on equivalence and may recommend additional modules. Applicants educated outside German-language institutions must prove sufficient German skills.
