Business Administration

Business administration is a part of economic sciences. It is concerned with economic interrelations and principles of corporations and offers insights in corporative structures and processes. Specific fields and objects of research result from questions that different departments of corporations face.

The bachelor programme in business administration prepares students to solve these problems in the best way possible. 

Specialisation through Interdisciplinarity

Students are able to express their interests and professional aspirations by choosing respective modules in the supplementary section. Within this section, further modules from business administration as well as modules from economics, social sciences and information systems can be chosen.
