I have a B.Com Honours and I am doing my MBA in Finance. Can I apply for a master's in commerce in Germany or Austria?
Yes, a B.Com Honours graduate currently doing an MBA in Finance can apply for a master's in commerce or related fields in Germany and Austria. Most universities judge a completed bachelor's degree, not the MBA, plus some business or quantitative coursework and English proof like IELTS, varying by programme.
Yes, you can apply for a master's in commerce or a related field in Germany and Austria. Admission is judged on your completed bachelor's degree and programme-specific subject requirements, not on an ongoing MBA, and each university sets its own criteria.
Typical eligibility points
| Requirement | What to expect |
|---|---|
| Bachelor's degree | A relevant bachelor's degree, which your B.Com Honours provides |
| Coursework | Credits in business, finance, mathematics or statistics may be looked at |
| English proficiency | Usually shown with a test such as IELTS |
| Grades and subject credits | Minimum grades or specific credits may apply |
What varies
Eligibility details differ by university and programme, so the minimum grades or subject credits for one course may not match another. Check the admission page of each programme you like.
My Advice
Make a short list of programmes, then compare your transcript against each credit requirement. Since your MBA is still ongoing, remember that admission is judged on your completed bachelor's degree and subject requirements, not the MBA.
