We warmly invite you to read more about the Hertie School and hope to welcome you on our campus in the near future. Henrik Enderlein, Axel Baisch, President Managing Director Degrees and programmes The two-year Master of Public Policy (MPP) pro- gramme is geared towards students with a Bachelor degree who wish to expand their knowledge in the fields of global or European governance, economic policy, social policy, public management, and demo- cratic governance. The two-year Master of International Affairs (MIA) programme focuses on international relations and prepares candidates for positions requiring a profound understanding of today’s governance challenges in a global multilevel system. The MPP and MIA programmes include an internship and the opportunity to do a “professional year”. Students can also spend a semester abroad or complete dual degrees at one of the School’s partner institutions. The Hertie School offers the Doctoral Programme in Governance, a three-year structured doctoral pro- gramme with a focus on governance and public policy; and contributes to the Berlin Graduate School for Transnational Studies (BTS). Various options are offered for professionals: The Executive Master of Public Administration (EMPA) is for experienced professionals from the private, public, and non-profit sector, who wish to develop their management and leadership skills. By completing an 4 Executive Training, professionals can expand their management competence in a specific area. Executive MPA participants benefit from several exchange programmes with partner universities as well as very flexible structures. The Hertie School also offers tailor-made solutions to companies and organisations in the public, private, and civil society sectors. The Hertie School’s degree programmes and executive training formats are taught in English. About the students The Hertie School’s greatest asset is the quality of its students. Since the establishment of the school we have welcomed students from over 95 countries. Their rich and diverse backgrounds find expression in a host of initiatives, making campus life much more than just a classroom experience.
