Programme outcomes

The bachelor’s programme in International Business Administration aims at equipping students with methodological, institutional and application-oriented management expertise, thereby enabling them to solve business administration problems independently. 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.

Fields of activity

Graduates from the degree programmes in International Business Administration and Business Administration essentially have the same career options and are qualified to work in leading positions in the field of economics.
Graduates of both fields of studies have the opportunity to work in marketing, controlling, accounting, IT, logistics, insurance and human resource management.

However, those striving for a career in an international company or a global organisation will have a clear advantage with a degree in International Business Administration.
After completing this programme, leading positions in international companies will be open to our graduates. Voluntary stays abroad in the course of the degree programme will add to our students’ linguistic, subject-specific and cultural competences.
