About the Program

How do people deal with their economic goods? And how does society function from an economic perspective? As an economist, you want to know exactly - in theory as well as in practice - in relation to the global economy or to an individual company. The close interlinking of business administration and economics in this degree program will give you the fundamental skills you need to master a wide range of challenges. We train you to be an all-rounder, but also make you a specialist: you can choose two majors and a minor focus during your studies. This will enable you to use your practical and theoretical knowledge to independently identify economic challenges. You will also acquire relevant specialist knowledge and methods from the related disciplines of law, psychology and ethics, which will help you to view problems from different perspectives.
