Das Curriculum ist aus den Sozial-, Natur-, Ingenieur- und Gesundheitswissenschaften sowie operativen Bereichen zusammengestellt. KaVoMa-Absolventinnen und -Absolventen erlernen und festigen Grundlagen aus den Natur- und Gesellschaftswissenschaften, die ihnen nicht nur helfen, die für den Menschen und seine Lebensgrundlage potenziell negativen Auswirkungen von Prozessen der Geo- und Atmosphäre, sondern auch die menschliche Reaktion darauf zu verstehen. Außerdem werden die einzelnen Schritte der Risikoregulierung vermittelt: von Methoden der Gefahren-, Vulnerabilitäts- und schließlich der Risikoanalyse und deren kritische Hinterfragung bis hin zur Bewertung von Risiken und den möglichen Methoden der nachhaltigen Vorsorge und der Vorbereitung auf den Ernstfall. Dabei wird der Risikokommunikation als Methode der Vorsorge und als wesentlicher Bestandteil der Risikoregulierung insgesamt eine grundlegende Bedeutung zugemessen.

International Taxation and Law, B.A.
In the early stages of this degree programme, you’ll acquire thorough knowledge of national fiscal law, particularly in the fields of income tax laws, procedural law and commercial taxation. In later stages, your knowledge base will expand to advanced topics in international taxation and law, for example bilateral agreements and supranational law, which are critically examined and discussed with respect to their supporting legal framework. Graduates are able to identify and evaluate sophisticated tax issues both in terms of economics and law, as well as develop appropriate, real-world solution concepts, particularly in the following areas: Transfer pricing, Controlled foreign corporate legislation, Double taxation conventions and International tax planning.
At the same time, the programme is also dedicated to exploring the logical interconnection between business administration, law and general economics. [...] The programme is taught in English, which allows you to refine your overall proficiency and develop not only effective business communication skills, but also an excellent command of English tax and finance terminology, boosting your employability in the international job market.

Managing Global Governance
During the 3 ½ month course, the young professionals from government bodies, policy-oriented think tanks, research institutions and NGOs discuss pressing global challenges, explore options for global governance, and design solutions for the future.
The Academy is based on the premise that future change makers need profound knowledge of content and the ability to analyse complex interdependencies as well as personal and social skills. The course thus blends knowledge components on global governance challenges with the development of the participants’ leadership competencies. In an action-oriented component, participants apply the knowledge and competencies they have acquired and develop a collective change project.
The working methods include academic discussions, visits to institutions and field trips, exchange with professionals working in the field of global governance, practical experience and participatory approaches as well as self-guided project work. Since diversity is one of the key assets of the programme, ample space is given for learning from each others’ experiences and perspectives.
