Public procurement touches all economic sectors and constitutes between 15–30% of the GDP in most countries. Therefore, it is significant for enhancing market competitiveness and sustainable development. This Master’s programme is a response to the deficit in competent human resources and the need to keep up to date with the ever-increasing complexity of the legal framework, the globalization of markets, and the sophisticated contractual and tendering systems.

A limited number of partial scholarships, not exceeding 20% of the tuition costs, are usually available for participants from developing countries and are allocated on a competitive-basis.
