Special features regarding teaching

Hardly any business problem can be solved without an interdisciplinary approach. The Business Administration degree courses take this into account by explicitly encouraging students to engage with the content and methodological approaches of related disciplines and to understand their importance for business decisions. For example, students are given the opportunity to benefit from Brandenburg University of Technology’s profile as a technical university and to shape their studies in a technology-oriented way to specifically prepare themselves for a career in technology-oriented industries.

Special features regarding the international orientation

The BTU Cottbus-Senftenberg has more than 150 partnerships with partners around the world. The Bachelor and Master´s degree programmes in Business Administration explicitly provide mobility windows for studying abroad in order to give students the chance to benefit from the university's international partnerships.

Exchange universities for stay abroads

Istanbul Technical University, Türkei; Okan University, Türkei; Sorbonne University, Frankreich; Universidad de Alcalá, Spanien; Charles Darwin University, Australien; National Cheng Kung University, Taiwan; University of Science and Technology, China; Université du Québec à Montréal, Kanada; Universidad Nacional de Colombia, Kolumbien; University of Namibia, Namibia

Special features regarding the equipment

Several computer rooms and computer clusters, an information, communication and media centre (multiple award-winning university library) with individual workstations, numerous laboratories for projects and final theses in overlapping areas of Economics and Engineering

Special features regarding research activities

The key areas of economic research on the topics of (Entrepreneurial) Change, Economic Transformation and Innovations underpin the main areas of study on offer and are thus incorporated into teaching.

Support for founders

Entrepreneurship service with advisory services and assistance with filing applications; Arranging contacts with inventors. Explicit consideration of the topic of founding in teaching.

Other special features

Students can adapt their studies to their individual preferences in both the Bachelor's and Master's degrees, pursuing specialisations that reflect the complexity of real business problems and take into account the multitude of analysis methods used in business decisions. Another speciality is the emphasis on interdisciplinarity and multidisciplinary studies. This ensures that students are also made aware of problems outside of their own discipline.
