Why study MSc EBA SCM?
3 good reasons to choose MSc EBA SCM
Global Supply Chains
Data and Decision Making
Strategy and Collaboration
“ Supply chain managment is about zooming out to get a broader overview. You will learn about different aspects to help supply chains serve the end customers ” Kasper
Student, MSc EBA SCM
A holistic perspective
Breaking down the silos
In today’s business world, leading companies see their supply chains as a whole. They are not just separate parts like finance, production, logistics, or sales. They succeed by breaking down silos inside the company and by creating value together with suppliers and customers. This big-picture view is what supply chain management is all about.
In the MSc EBA SCM programme, you’ll learn to analyse and manage global supply chains with this holistic mindset. You’ll consider the impact of decisions across every stage, from raw material extraction, production and retailing to final consumption and even the return flow of goods.
Designing supply chains and building networks
The programme focuses on both strategic and everyday decisions. You’ll work with questions like: How should a supply chain be structured? How do companies allocate resources? How do we design processes that meet the demands of modern industry and society?
You’ll learn to connect an organisation’s overall business strategy with its supply chain strategy, and to build strong relationships both inside the company and with external partners. This ability to coordinate decisions across the entire network is key to creating value, building strong brands, and securing long-term business success.
“ What I like the best about MSc EBA SCM is definitely the social environment of the programme. People all come from different backgrounds, and I feel like there is a great sense of community. ” Naja
Student, MSc EBA SCM
Techniques for better decision making
To succeed, you’ll need the right tools. The programme gives you up-to-date methods for planning and managing global value creation. You’ll work with both data-driven techniques and conceptual analysis to understand the flow of goods, information, money, and materials — from the moment an order is placed until the product reaches the customer.
You’ll gain the ability to analyse data, test the effect of changes, and make sure the right products are in the right place at the right time. These skills are essential for driving profitability and ensuring companies deliver real value.

Options
Electives
On the 3rd semester, you can choose to study courses of your specific interest. CBS offers a large number of electives within a wide range of topics. You can also choose to take electives at other Danish universities. The electives you choose have to be relevant for your programme.
See the current selection of CBS electives on Courses at master level.
Minor
On the 3rd semester, you can also choose to study a so-called minor. A minor is a package of electives within a specific academic area. Typically, it consists of 3 courses. By taking a minor, you strengthen your competences within a specific area of interest, and you can use it to qualify for specific jobs or industries.
See the current selection of CBS Minors.
Exchange
Many students choose to go on exchange on their 3rd semester; usually at one of CBS’ more than 300 partner universities. When you go on exchange through CBS, you do not have to pay for the teaching at the foreign university (with a few exceptions), and you can bring your SU (student grant).
Find a list of all CBS partner universities here.
Academic internship
You can choose to replace some of your electives with a so-called academic internship. The academic internship consists of an internship period at a company, which is then completed with a project report. You can do the internship at a company in Denmark or abroad.
When doing an internship you get the opportunity to relate theory to practice and reflect on the academic training you receive at CBS in a practical setting. Therefore, the project report and work assignments during your internship have to be relevant to your study programme.
CEMS
On Supply Chain Management, you can apply for the CEMS - Master in International Management programme. CEMS MIM is a double degree programme, which gives you the opportunity to add a second degree in international management to your CBS degree. This means that you will get both the MSc degree and the CEMS in International Management degree.
CEMS is a 1-year programme, which you study in combination with your CBS degree in your 3rd and 4th semester. Part of it takes place at one of the other CEMS universities abroad.
Learn more about CEMS / Master in International Management.
Master's thesis
Your 2nd year is completed with a master's thesis. You choose the topic you want to write about, which allows you to focus on a specific topic of your interest. Typically, you write your master's thesis with a fellow student.
“ I enjoy when people, processes and systems are working holistically together which made supply chain management the obvious choice for me. ” Kasper

Make a self-assessment
What is a self-assessment?
If there is no advance assessment available for your bachelor’s degree, you can make a so-called self-assessment of your educational background.
If there is an advance assessment of your bachelor degree showing that you are missing certain academic areas to fulfil the academic requirements, you can also use the self-assessment to show how you fulfil the missing academic areas.
Your self-assessment is not binding for us, but it can help you prepare your application and give us a better overview of your educational background.
How to make a self-assessment
Start by listing all the undergraduate courses you have taken, or are going to take, as part of your bachelor's degree or in addition to it, and compare them to the programme's academic requirements.
Read your course titles and descriptions carefully. Try to categorise the courses according to the master programme’s academic requirements.
To get an idea of how we assess each course category, you can use the course catalogue to see how we have categorised different CBS elective courses or CBS Summer University courses within each category.
Use the self-assessment form
We have created a form you can use for your self-assessment. The form is a tool to help you match your courses with the academic entry requirements for the programme and see to what extent you fulfil them.
Remember to include
- Courses you have already passed
- Courses you are currently taking
- Courses you expect to pass before study start (e.g. supplementary courses at summer university)

What is a part-time master?
A part-time master in MSc in Business Administration and Digital Business is a full degree you study part time. This means that it will take you 4 years to complete rather than 2. This gives you the flexibility to combine a graduate programme with a relevant job at min. 25 hours a week.
Do I have to pay for a part-time master?
You do not have to pay tuition in order to study a part-time master.
However, if you are not an EU/EAA citizen, you have to pay an application and tuition fee, as for any other graduate programme.
Read more about tuition and application fee.
Full- time programme as part-time master
The part-time master has the same academic content and level as the full-time equivalent. You will attain the same competencies and knowledge as the full-time version of the programme you are interested in. As a part-time student it will take you 4 years to complete the programme, divided over 8 semesters with 15 ECTS each semester. You can see an overview of the programme below.
The part-time master bridges theory and practice. You get the opportunity to connect what you learn at CBS directly with relevant tasks and projects at work. You can contribute with the newest academic knowledge at work, and you will get practical experience using that knowledge.

Customise your programme
Electives
On the 3rd semester, you can choose to study courses of your specific interest. CBS offers a large number of electives within a wide range of topics. You can also choose to take electives at other Danish universities. The electives you choose have to be relevant for your programme.
See the current selection of CBS electives on Single courses and electives - Master
Minor
On the 3rd semester, you can also choose to study a so-called minor. A minor is a package of electives within a specific academic area. Typically, it consists of 3 courses. By taking a minor, you strengthen your competences within a specific area of interest, and you can use it to qualify for specific jobs or industries.
If you do a minor you should be able to take 22,5 ECTS in the autumn semester.
See the current selection of CBS minors on Minors
Master's thesis
Your 2nd year is completed with a master's thesis. You choose the topic you want to write about, which allows you to focus on a specific topic of your interest. Typically, you write your master's thesis with a fellow student.

Student, MSc EBA SCM
Classes and preparation
Classes during the day
As a part-time student you will have classes together with the full-time students in the programme. Typically, classes are scheduled in the daytime Monday – Friday between 09:00 and 17:00. You can expect to have 6-9 class hours per week, divided between 2 to 4 classes. These will be spread out throughout the week, so you might have classes e.g. Monday and Wednesday morning, as well as Thursday afternoon.
Mandatory assignments and group work
In some courses you will work in study groups, where you e.g. have to prepare a presentation or write an assignment together. Your study group may consist of both part-time and full-time students.
In some of your mandatory courses you need to pass certain mandatory activities or assignments during class as a pre-requisite for participating in the exam. On Digital Business the mandatory assignments can be quizzes and home assignments done invidivually or in groups.
Preparation for classes
Your lecturers will expect you to show up prepared for classes. This means that you have done the reading for the class or sometimes prepared a case. Classes are planned with the assumption that students are prepared for the topic or theory you will be working on in class. Preparation is the key to getting as much out of your studies as you can.
You should expect to spend 10 hours per week on average on preparation for classes. This could both be on your own and in groups. You might spend less time at the start of the semester, and more in the time leading up to an exam.
Flexibility between work and studies
We expect you to show up and actively participate in your classes, so it is important that you and your employer have an understanding to make sure that you have the flexibility and time for your studies.
Please note that classes will not be recorded and will not be scheduled outside of regular working hours as is the case for e.g. diploma or other part-time masters.
Read more on Teaching and working methods.
Salary and special educational support
You are paid a regular salary from your employer
Salary and SU
As a part-time student you are not eligible to receive SU as you are paid a regular salary from your employer. You have to negotiate your own salary with your employer. Please note that the salary should reflect your level of education and competencies.
In need of special educational support?
You should note that you cannot receive Special Educational Support, SPS, in a part-time programme. The reason is that the part-time programme is not eligible for SU, and this is a requirement in order to receive SPS. You can still apply for special conditions e.g. at exams.
Read more about Special Educational Support.
Tuition and other payment
You do not have to pay tuition in order to study a part-time master.
However, if you are not an EU/EAA citizen, you have to pay an application and tuition fee, as for any other graduate programme.
Read more about tuition and application fee.
