STRUCTURE & CONTENTS

The Master program Digital Marketing & Analytics provides decision-makers and specialists with a professional introduction to the world of digital marketing and web-based performance measurement.

The innovative study program was developed at MCI | The Entrepreneurial School®. In addition to underlying strategic, technical and legal know-how, the program teaches practical digital marketing instruments, the correct use of digital communication tools and the development of target group-specific content.


The master's program addresses the following topics:

  • Digital skills
  • Technical basics
  • Digital Marketing
  • Digital Sales & E-Commerce
  • Social Media Marketing
  • Digital Analytics & Strategies
  • Fundamentals of Law
  • Digital Marketing Strategy & Leadership
  • Virtual Reality


The course of study concludes with a Master thesis on a scientific level, which deals with a problem of the own organisation or the respective professional environment. In this way, the final transfer of the acquired knowledge into one's own professional practice takes place.

In terms of didactics, the part-time study program follows the mobile learning concept (blended learning) developed at MCI | The Entrepreneurial School®. An intelligent mix of online phases, attendance modules and electronic media links location-independent studies with personal interaction between lecturers and students. The didactic concept thus differs fundamentally from typical distance learning and meets the highest standards.
