Overall Information

Academic year

  • 1st of September to 30th of June.

Entrance qualifications

In order to be admitted to the MIKE-E or the MIKE-B programme the applicant must have successfully completed a bachelor degree in Economics or Business Administration respectively. Alternatively, students with a bachelor degree in an other field combined with significant coursework in economic analysis or with some relevant practical experience can be enrolled based on an individual assessment.

In addition, documented proficiency in both written and oral English is a prerequisite. Documented proficiency can for instance be a completed and approved IELTS test (International English Language Testing System) with a score of at least 6.5.

The Study Board considers all applicants. Decisions on admission are made on the basis of academic merit and available places in the programmes.

You can enrol as a degree student or a certificate student

The MSc programme is conducted in English and thus open for foreign students without any knowledge of Danish. Both foreign and Danish students can participate in the programme in two ways:

  • Degree students, i.e. students completing the two-year programme, and receiving the Master's Degree in Innovation, Knowledge and Economic/Entrepreneurial Dynamics from Aalborg University.
  • Certificate students, i.e. students who enrol as guest students for a semester or two as an integrated part of their studies at their home university. Typically, guest students can enrol for the first, the second, or the third semester.
