Msc. in Strategy, Innovation, and Management Control

The Strategy, Innovation, and Management Control master's programme at WU Vienna prepares students to bridge the qualitative side of management, strategy and innovation, with the quantitative side of management control and financial management. Taught in English over four semesters, it combines academic coursework with business projects run alongside corporate partners and 'garage' courses for startup development, plus optional exchange semesters or double degrees abroad. It suits graduates with a background in economics or business administration who want to move into corporate strategy, consulting or entrepreneurial roles. The programme ranks in the top 10% globally in the QS Management Ranking 2026, and 76% of students receive a job offer before graduating.
