 Master's and German Tax Advisor exams 
You have earned your bachelor's degree and don't know yet whether your path will continue at the university or in practice? Can you also imagine completing a professional exam in the future? These don't have to be mutually exclusive. We promote part-time master's programs for employees with initial professional experience and support you on the way to sitting for your professional exams in tax consulting.
The exam master's program prepares you both for your master's degree and a professional exam.  Some of these programs were developed together with cooperation universities and other auditing and tax consulting firms specifically for our needs.

 Mannheim Master of 
 Accounting & Taxation 

 Your part-time master's program in tax consulting. The taxation curriculum in the master's program at the Mannheim Business School is custom tailored to your future activities in tax consulting. It also prepares you for your Tax Advisor exam. The customized course of studies combines theory and practice and was developed by the University of Mannheim together with the Big Four accounting firms. That means you will have a clear head and can both study and launch your career at the same time. 
You begin with a six-week onboarding in June introducing you to the principles of corporate taxation and material tax law. After that, theoretical and practical phases alternate every three months. The university blocks are held in early summer and fall, and you are excused from your studies in the busy season around the turn of the year. At PwC, you decide on a specialization in one of our Tax practice groups. In the final year, the events end in June, and you sit for your Tax Advisor exam in October.
Please note for your application: When you are approved for PwC aid, you then have to apply to the Mannheim Business School (MBS) on your own by February 15.

Beginning
At PwC by January 1 at the latest; the university begins on June 1 each year
