The MCA is an English-language course delivered entirely online. The course examines international trade law, European customs law and export control requirements using practical examples. As strategic managers, graduates will be able to optimise their supply chain, minimise hidden costs and ensure compliance.

The MCA programme is a collaborative venture (“public-private partnership”) between the University of Münster, the Institute of Customs and International Trade Law (ICTL) and the AWA AUSSENWIRTSCHAFTS-AKADEMIE GmbH (“AWA Foreign Trade Academy“).

Münster University lays down the academic standards and awards the degree certificate, the ICTL organises the academic side of the programme (i.e. applications, lectures and examinations) and the AWA Foreign Trade Academy is responsible for finance and administration.
