Before starting your studies...
... you have the opportunity to take part in one of our Bachelor Orientation Tutorials (BOT). There you will receive valuable insights and information about the Bachelor's degree programme at the Faculty of Business, Economics and Informatics before the start of the semester.
The aim is to deal with topics, questions and problems that experience has shown to occur particularly at the beginning of the degree programme and thus optimally prepare students for the start of their studies.
During the degree programme
In the first three semesters, you will gain an insight into the basics of mathematics, computer science and economics.
From the fourth semester onwards, you can choose your modules more freely. During this time, you will also complete your compulsory internship of at least 6 weeks in industry, business or administration. This serves as a practical introduction to relevant problem areas and enables you to apply the knowledge you have acquired during your studies. In the final semester, you will complete a written thesis.
A semester abroad...
... is guaranteed, but not mandatory! The 5th and 6th semesters are particularly suitable for a stay abroad. You can choose from a large number of different partner universities and have the courses you take abroad credited to your degree programme.
You can find more information about studying abroad on our International page.
