A total of six modules in the "International Management" field of competence are taught and tested in English in order to practice using the language during your studies and to consolidate and expand existing language knowledge.

The career options

Graduates of business administration courses have a comprehensive insight into the company and accompany planning, management and control, they lead employees and make decisions on personnel issues. Technical and social skills, organizational skills and the ability to work independently are essential. You must know the interdependencies between the various departments and be able to correctly classify the resulting problems and prepare the necessary strategic decisions.

In the international business environment, some things are more complex: members of different cultures work together on different legal bases, trade goods across borders, often in different currencies. We will prepare you for the associated challenges with a degree in business administration and a comprehensive specialization in the field of international management. The lessons in the corresponding modules are held in English in order to consolidate the confident use of the language during the course.

NBS always focuses onthe employability of graduates . This is promoted, for example, by the integrated free seminar program. Are you considering an academic career? Use our scientific publication series for your first publication!

The study content

The course prepares you for the requirements of entrepreneurial management in a practical way and provides you with solid training in the methodology of scientific work. You will be qualified to work successfully in international companies or organizations and in culturally different professional and work fields by integrating international issues in all suitable courses.

The course can be divided into two phases: in the first three semesters there are only basic modules. The focus is on imparting the basic knowledge required for further study in the areas of methodology, business administration, economics, mathematics and law. In the later semesters, you will continue to expand your business management know-how in parallel with your degree specializations.

The faster networking of the study content is promoted above all by the fact that not every module is examined in the form of an exam: At least one module per semester is completed with a term paper and/or presentation. Above all, this should promote your methodological competence in the field of scientific work and enable you to obtain the necessary information even with complex questions and to evaluate it critically.
