Your future with a degree in Business Management

People with business knowledge in all areas are in demand, such as management, business organisation, marketing or the financial sector.

As managers, they solve business problems in companies and are consultants in business or in the public service.

Students can gain initial experience, for example in the role of a management consultant, in projects that are integrated into the course of study. They work on specific practical problems and make initial contacts with potential employers.

There is a wide range of specialisations to choose from for further development: from controlling to financial management and international business administration to marketing, sustainable development, auditing and taxation or business information technology.

Admissions Procedure

After deducting the so-called advance quotas (foreigner quota, hardship quota), 20% of the study places are allocated after a waiting period. The other 80% are distributed according to a university selection quota. This provides for an allocation based on the average grade of the university entrance qualification, which is an admission requirement in accordance with the examination regulations.

The waiting period counts from the time the university entrance qualification is attained.

Notification of admission for the main procedure is sent approx. 2-3 weeks after the application deadline. Then, rejections are handled. After a rejection you have the opportunity to participate in a possible lottery procedure. A lottery procedure takes place if there are still some remaining places for the course after the main selection procedure, the replacement procedure and enrolment.

You are informed of the enrolment deadline with the notification of admission. If enrolment is not made on time, the right to the study place expires irrevocably. You can find more information on enrolment here.

Fees

There is a compulsory fee charged each semester for the Student Services Authority, the student body and the semester travel ticket.
