Program content includes:

• Core courses in Business and Economics

• General studies
• Fundamentals of law and corporate law
• Ethics and sustainability
• Language courses
• Bachelor thesis

Semester abroad

WHU has a network of over 200 worldwide partner universities, where you will spend your 4th or 5th semester. The semester abroad is a key part of your business and personal development. We also offer a number of language courses and cultural trainings to prepare you for your exchange!
You can state which destination and university you prefer, and we will do our best to accommodate your choice. If a partner university is too popular amongst students, placement decisions will be based on your performance during the first two semesters.

Internship

Our program includes two internships, which give you the chance to gain practical experience/apply your knowledge/explore different career options/possibilities for yourself. Your first internship takes place during the summer break between the/your second and third semesters. The second internship takes place between your 4th and 5th semesters. One of the internships is completed in a non-German-speaking country to help you deepen your intercultural competencies. Each internship lasts a minimum of four weeks, but we encourage you to complete longer internships (10-12 weeks) to further enrich your experience.

Our Career Center team will assist you in finding an appropriate internship and help you build your professional network starting from day one, via a broad range of activities such as counseling, training, career fairs, and company presentations.
