Interesting Facts

  1. Recognition of competences

    The B.A. Business Administration degree programme offers a competence-oriented recognition of knowledge and skills acquired in and outside of higher education as well as prior academic achievements. This ensures that students do not have to study content in which they have already acquired equivalent competences.
    The following competences can be recognised:
    - Advanced training
    - Professional skills
    - Achievements from degree programmes at other colleges and universities
    Depending on your previous education, the crediting of skills can shorten the duration of your studies by several semesters. Make a non-binding enquiry to contact the IAW team at Ingolstadt University of Applied Sciences and find out more about credit transfer.

  2. Business administration opens up hundreds of career and job opportunities for students - fields of employment are incredibly diverse. Depending on what you have chosen to focus on in your career, these may include working as a marketing, media or project manager, management consultant, HR officer or self-employed / start-up entrepreneur, to name just a few of the possible fields.

Counselling and application

For individual counselling before and during the application phase, please get in touch with the named contact persons at the Campus for Continuing Education. You will find the relevant contact details on this page.

Applications for this degree programme are made online.

There you will receive all relevant information on the application formalities and have the opportunity to track your application progress online.
The application period for the summer semester begins on 15 November, for the winter semester on 2 May of each year.

University entrance qualification acquired abroad

If the higher education entrance qualification was obtained abroad, a preliminary examination of the higher education entrance qualification by uni-assist is required.

Please note that it may take 4 to 6 weeks for uni-assist to process your application.

You can find further information on applying to university from abroad on the website Applying to university from abroad.

FAQ

Can I have the content of my training and/or further education recognised?

The standard period of study is 11 semesters, whereby we can usually recognise the first two semesters (work experience, completed further training, etc...). If you are already working in a business-related context, the two practical semesters can also be recognised. This means that the study period is then only 7 semesters including the Bachelor's thesis.
