BA (Hons) in Betriebswirtschaft und Management

This course is for those who want the flexibility to design their own programme and the option to switch to specialised courses like Business Management with Marketing or Business and Human Resource Management after the first year.

Why study business and management?

Businesses have to constantly challenge and re-invent themselves to compete in the increasingly competitive global market.

As such, employers need graduates who can go beyond business theory with practical skills and real-world experience of how the business world works.
