Concept and Structure of Selected Study Programmes<br />
Concept of the Degree Programme ‘Business Administration’ (German Diplom)<br />
The distinctive feature of the ‘Business Administration’ 4-year-programme is that it is divided into a<br />
Foundation Scheme (Grundstudium) and a Degree Scheme (Hauptstudium). The Foundation Scheme<br />
programme comprises 4 semesters. The Degree Scheme consists of a placement semester (work placement<br />
in a company), 2 university study semesters and 1 assessment semester (dissertation). In all, the<br />
day study programme comprises 8 semesters (4 years).<br />
The ‘Business Administration’ degree programme is conceived as a multidisciplinary programme, that is,<br />
the studies consist of several subject areas. These are:<br />
– Business Administration<br />
– Economics<br />
– Law<br />
– Social Sciences<br />
The Foundation Scheme consists of courses in business administration, economics, law and social sciences.<br />
In addition, courses in such skill areas as business mathematics, statistics and data processing are<br />
offered. Furthermore the business language English is taught.<br />
The Degree Scheme consists of the following:<br />
– Core Studies<br />
– Major Course of Studies I (Business Area)<br />
– Major Course of Studies II (Topic Area)<br />
– Optional Supplementary Studies<br />
The Core Studies consist of a 4-hour course, ‘Strategic Management’, supplemented by a 2-hour course<br />
from the fields of economics, social science or law.<br />
In the Major Course of Studies I the following specialisations are offered:<br />
– Financing and Investment<br />
– Marketing<br />
– Human Resources and Organisation<br />
– Accounting and Controlling<br />
– Information and Communication Management<br />
– Business Taxation<br />
The Major Course of Studies II consists of so-called ‘topic areas’ which are interdisciplinary structured<br />
(as a rule 3 courses of 4 hours each). In the new study programme students currently have the following<br />
5 options:<br />
– Internationalisation of Economic Processes<br />
– Economy and the Environment<br />
– Economy and Gender<br />
– Structural Change and Modernisation<br />
– Economy and Society<br />
Attention: the 3 courses can only be followed as a whole!<br />
