About this program

BSc in Business Administration (International Management)

Our Bachelor of Science in Business Administration lays the groundwork for an international career in management. The teaching method includes case- and project-based learning, excursions, business simulations, integrated internships, a semester abroad and regular interaction with industry professionals.

With the International Management track, go beyond contemporary business models, and look at the world’s economy from an international perspective. With each year, the world becomes more connected creating a global economy. Products we use on a daily basis no longer come from local sources but are often shipped from all over the world. Germany’s yearly exports total up to more than one billion Euros.

Companies in such a globalized environment need experts that are capable of handling international transactions. Managers with international backgrounds in marketing, accounting, finance, logistics and communications establish the connections between companies and international markets. They become responsible for their company’s operations abroad.
