Curriculum
Every year of the Bachelor’s of International Business Administration is divided into two semesters. The semesters are divided into two blocks, during which you have lectures and seminars. At the end of each block, you have exams to conclude the module. A certain number of study credits (ECTS) is contributed to each module. 1 ECTS equals a study load of 28 hours.
During the Bachelor’s programme you will follow four learning lines. This way you will develop your knowledge and skills each year. The learning lines are:
- International Business Administration content: you will explore the field of International Business Administration. Each semester there are 2-3 courses focused on theories in the field.
- Academic Skills: you will develop and improve academic skills such as finding recourses, critical reading, presenting and argumentation.
- Methods: you will learn how to design a research, how to collect, interpret and report data and how to research ethically.
- Professional and Personal Development: you will develop yourself both personally and professional. During the curriculum there is room for career orientation, self-reflection, project management and ownership.
