Educational organisation

The programme is a combined BA/MA programme. After completing seven semesters of study, students are awarded the "Bachelor of Arts" by HWR Berlin. They then automatically proceed with the Master's part of the programme. After another three semesters, students are awarded the degrees "Master of Arts" or "Master of Science" (depending on their specialisation) by HWR Berlin and the "Grade Master" by ESCE Paris.
First-year courses are held in Berlin, second-year courses in Paris. During their fifth semester, students have to complete a six-month internship in a country of their partner language (German students in a French-speaking country, French students in a German-speaking country).
Students spend their sixth and seventh semesters at HWR Berlin.
Students then spend the first semester of their Master's programme in Berlin and their second semester in Paris. At the end, students choose where to spend their final semester - either in Berlin or in Paris.
This is a joint degree programme.
