Business Administration

 

The degree program

The B.Sc. in Business Administration leads students to their first academic title of the two-level degree program concept (bachelor’s/master’s degree) and therefore also to their first professional qualification. The degree program is modular and integrative, with the specialization in business administration being supplemented by contents from the fields of economics, law and business information systems. The degree program offers many elective and specialization options and at the same time provides training with a clear practical orientation.

The bachelor’s program starts with the basic subjects in business administration, business information systems, mathematics and statistics in the first and partly in the second year of study. In the second year of study, economics and the first special field of business administration are also treated, while the third year of study finally includes key qualifications, the second special field of business administration, analytical specialization and an elective subject. The bachelor’s thesis must be written in the 6th and final semester.

Special fields of business administration include:

• Business Taxation
• Controlling
• Banking and Finance Management
• Management of Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises (SMEs)
• Marketing Management
• Media Management
• Operations Research in Logistics
• HR Management and Organization

The broad range of specialization, elective and immersion options permits individual study biographies and gives students diverse entry options in nearly any sector.

 

Organization of the degree program 

Subject examination regulations/degree plans/module handbooks/internship regulations 

Subject examination regulations (FPOs) define the basic structures of a degree program (e.g. admission requirements and contents to be studied). The current version of an FPO automatically applies to students when enrolling in the first semester of study. This means that, even if the FPO changes during the course of your studies, the original version in effect at the time of enrollment still applies (provided that said FPO does not expire).

The respective degree plan contains the recommended exemplary course of studies in the individual subjects and is part of an FPO.

Supplementary regulations and detailed information on each module to be studied can be found in the module handbooks (e.g. requirements for taking a written examination or information about the content of modules/courses, …).

The internship regulations define the conditions under which the compulsory or optional internships must be completed.

We recommend that, as a minimum, you take a look at the degree plan of your degree program before the start of the lecture period so that you know which modules are intended for the start of your studies.
