Your studies at THI don’t begin in the lecture hall, but with an intensive orientation week. This is where you lay the groundwork for your professional network: you’ll get to know your fellow students, meet professors and student organizations, and familiarize yourself with THI’s procedures.
In the first three semesters, we build the foundation for your advanced studies. The focus is on fundamentals in the three core areas of business, digitalization, and technology.
We want you to not only excel academically but also grow as a person. That’s why, from the very beginning, we integrate courses that support you in
Now things get serious—and exciting. You’ll move from the basics to practical application and tailor your studies to your interests.

The Digital Business degree program starts in the winter term. Application via Hochschulstart (DOSV) is not necessary. Registration for the study program starts on May 2 for the winter semester. Online application is possible via the Primuss applicant portal of THI.

Programme Documents
Important: The module handbooks listed above relate to the previous programme regulations (SPO 2021/22). New programme regulations will take effect from Winter Semester 2026/27, and the corresponding module handbooks will be published on this page in due course.
Applicants from non-German-speaking countries applying for a German-taught programme are required to demonstrate German language proficiency at CEFR level B2. A list of accepted and equivalent language certificates can be found in the General Regulations published by the Legal Affairs Office.
Anyone with an international university degree/higher education qualification wanting to study at a university in Germany needs a so-called Hochschulzugangsberechtigung (HZB), or higher education entrance qualification. This lets applicants show that their educational background or professional qualification allows them to study in Germany, i.e. they have the necessary higher education entrance qualification to register for a course.
The recognition of the qualification is linked to certain requirements. If the certificate of education is recognised as a higher education entrance qualification in Germany, the international student may apply for all courses (general qualification) or for certain courses (subject-specific qualification). Two to three semesters of study in the home country may be recognised as a higher education entrance qualification in Germany, depending on the country of origin.

The following link provide information for university applicants from abroad about the application process at the THI.
Applicants from non-German-speaking countries applying for a German-language degree program must also provide proof of sufficient knowledge of the German language with level B2.
Proof of having passed the German language exam must be submitted at the latest upon enrollment. A list of language certificates classified as equivalent can be found under General Statutes on the pages of the Office of Legal Affairs.

The DB program places a stronger emphasis on IT-related skills, such as in the areas of IT management and data management. In addition, the curriculum in the field of digital business has a stronger technological focus overall, for example through topics such as artificial intelligence and digital business models or technologies.
In contrast, the MPS program has a clear focus on psychology, particularly in fields such as media psychology and business psychology. In addition, psychological research methods are more prominent, for example through in-depth knowledge of quantitative and qualitative methods.
In summary, it can be said that DB is more technology- and IT-oriented, while MPS focuses on psychological content and its methodologically sound research.
Digital Business is a degree program at THI Business School that specializes in the topic of digitalization in the context of companies. It combines business and digitalization knowledge (70%) and IT knowledge (30%). This proportion is exactly the opposite for the Business Informatics degree program..
At THI Business School, personal development is an integral part of all Bachelor degree programs. In practical modules, students deal intensively with their own strengths, values and goals. They learn to understand themselves better, develop a personal vision and strengthen important skills such as communication, self-presentation and the ability to reflect - central to their studies, career and personal growth.
Admission to a study place and the contract with a THI dual partner are independent of each other. This means that you must also meet the admission requirements at THI in order to start the dual study program.
In the "Vocational Experience" model of the Digital Business degree program, the practical semester is completed at the dual practice partner, usually in the 6th semester.
University studies and apprenticeship are at very different levels of the education system. The recognition of credits is generally assessed on an individual application basis. Unfortunately, it is not possible to make general statements in advance.
The credit recognition process takes place after enrolment in the first semester of study.
Applicants from non-German-speaking countries who are applying for a German-language degree program must provide proof of sufficient knowledge of the German language at level B2. Proof of having passed the German language test must be submitted at the latest upon enrolment. A list of language certificates classified as equivalent can be found under General Statutes on the website of the Office of Legal Affairs.
Many students work as student employees to finance their studies. However, you should focus on obtaining a good degree during your studies. If you want to do more than work as a student employee (e.g. full-time or part-time work), we recommend a different study model (e.g. part-time study).
Do you have any questions about applications, admission, enrolment, student finance, accommodation or other general topics? If so, please use our contact form and select the relevant topic. This will ensure your enquiry is sent directly to the relevant contact person(s) and can be answered quickly and effectively.
