Practical orientation is very important to us. That's why you start your business administration studies with an introductory week in which you go on an excursion and carry out a company analysis as part of a team.
In the first part of your studies, you will then learn the basics of business administration, such as marketing, financing, HR management, logistics or digital business, based on the latest scientific findings and deepen your knowledge of business English. You will also learn project management methods.
From the fourth semester onwards, you will specialize in two of eight freely selectable areas of study. In small groups, you will work directly with the professors on current topics related to your specialization. In addition to further foundations in strategic management and economics, you can acquire specialist and social skills in four elective subjects, such as “Business start-up and start-up coaching” or expand your language skills. One of the specializations can be completed abroad. The sixth semester, the practical semester, is all about applying the knowledge you have already acquired.
With the final Bachelor's thesis, you will acquire the academic title Bachelor of Arts. This gives you the opportunity to start your career directly or to specialize further as part of a Master's degree.
The part-time study programme is especially suitable for students in particular personal situations (e.g. taking care of children or family members, disability, etc.). The programme content is the same as for the full-time bachelor's degree course in Business Administration. However, students have more time so as to be able to organise childcare or care of their relatives more effectively, for example. The course breaks down into two degree phases. The first phase comprises six theory semesters and a basic internship which is completed between semesters. The second phase comprises six theory semesters in which students specialise in two freely selected focus areas, and two practical semesters.
In the part-time study programme, students acquire the academic title of Bachelor of Arts on completion of the final bachelor’s degree assignment. This enables them either to embark on a career or engage in further specialisation by going on to take a master’s degree.
If you would like to help shape the mobility of the future, then Automotive and Mobility Management is certainly of particular interest to you.
If Wall Street, corporate finance or questions of controlling are of particular interest to you, then Controlling and Finance is the right focus for you.
If you find digital business models, artificial intelligence and big data particularly exciting, then the Digital Business specialisation is the right choice for you.
If you are particularly interested in topics such as employer branding, international human resource management and also questions of sustainability, then HR Management and CSR is the right focus for you.
If you find insights into content and social media marketing, brand management or different sales models very interesting, then the specialisation in Marketing and Sales is a good fit for you.
If you are particularly interested in issues of procurement, material flows and international supply chains in an increasingly complex world, then the specialisation in Operations and Supply Chain Management is right for you.
If you are interested in tax issues such as income taxes, group accounting and international topics such as double taxation agreements, then the specialisation in Corporate Taxation and Accounting is the right choice for you.
