    About Double Master's Programme in Demography and Social Inequality

    The double Master's programme in Demography and Social Inequality gives students the opportunity to benefit from the expertise of two top-ranking universities. Participants in the programme spend one year studying at each university and graduate with two Master's degrees: a Master of Science in Sociology and Social Research awarded by the University of Cologne and a Master of Science in Population Studies awarded by the University of Groningen in the Netherlands. The international Master's programme focuses on demographic change and the challenges faced by modern societies due to increasing life expectancy, decreasing birth rates and migration. The study programme aims to provide students with broad methodological expertise and knowledge of a variety of theoretical approaches to human behaviour. Students gain an in-depth understanding of human demographic behaviour and various dimensions of social inequality such as education, social participation and income. The programme enhances students' knowledge of population dynamics and provides methods and tools for analysing and researching demographic data in order to predict individual demographic behaviour and population dynamics. Pursuing both a German Master's degree and a Dutch Master's degree will provide graduates with outstanding employment opportunities on the European and international job market.
