Special attention will be paid to the needs of the economy in a dynamic and in an international environment.
Moreover, students will not only benefit from a sound education in the field of business administration, but can also choose from a range of extension curricula or occupational fields of the Faculty. This allows students to make the programme fit their personal career aspirations.
