Overview

Key Features

International know-how and experience is becoming ever-more important in our increasingly globalized world. Companies expect their employees to not only understand the central issues of Business Administration and Man- agement, but to have a range of soft skills such as intercultural competence.

The compulsory internship semester is also completed abroad or within an international company.
