Description of the programme
Future leaders need to know the specifics of different cultures and economies. This gives them confidence on the international stage and is an important basis for working with partners all over the world. The study programme also teaches this content.
Business knowledge at a high level
In addition to the aspects of international business relations, the study programme teaches all the important contents of a classic business degree. Management concepts are just as much a part of it as questions about decision-making and project management.
The study of business management is a major part of the programme.
The study of business administration content at a scientific level enables students to recognise complex interrelationships in practice and to derive the right decisions from them. The study programme trains entrepreneurial thinking and forms the basis for mastering challenging tasks in business.
Why enrolling in this programme?
Combination of theory and practice gives you a head start in your career
In the dual bachelor's programme at the FHDW, students alternate between university and company on a quarterly basis. During their studies, both sides can ‘get to know each other’ and see if they harmonise. This lays the foundation for successful co-operation at an early stage.
The part-time bachelor's and master's programme combine a full-time job with the study programme. This means that the study content can be used directly at the workplace and it is not necessary to leave the job.
Small groups promote personal contacts
Studying at the FHDW means: no overcrowded lecture halls and no impersonal meetings. The FHDW knows its students. The study groups are only ever as large as a class: a maximum of 36 students.
Perfect organisation saves time
Students do not have to worry about the sequence and organisation of their studies. The study programmes at the FHDW are perfectly organised and coordinated. The part-time bachelor's programmes take into account the NRW school holidays.
