Bachelor of Arts (as Joint Bachelor of Arts in the Subjects X and Y)
Wirtschaftswissenschaften, B.A. Joint Bachelor of Arts
Description
The Bachelor of Arts programme in the special form of Joint Bachelor of Arts in Subjects X and Y allows to combine two different subjects/components.
The component Business Administration and Economics confronts students with the Fundamentals of Business Administration and Economics. A specialisation in, expansion of, or a specialisation going beyond these fundamentals is not possible within the limited framework of a J.B.A. component. After completing the studies, which will most likely be oriented towards humanities or social sciences within the framework of the Joint Bachelor of Arts (see also the information under “Graduate Programmes” further down on this page), as humanities scholars, the students should be able to analyse economic processes and understand and influence internal processes.

A central prerequisite for a successful course of study of the Joint Bachelor of Arts programme Business Administration and Economics is a strong interest in economic and administrative contexts on the part of the prospective students.
A solid mathematical basis is essential for a successful course of study as mathematics, in particular, plays a vital role in the general context of the programme. For instance, it is used for the analysis of economic data. Sound prior knowledge of statistics is also beneficial to the studies.
Mathematics – Why? What? What for? Who? How? Where? Further information? You will find answers to these questions here.
Excellent English language skills are indispensable in a globalised world and for the future professional life. Lectures in English are often already integrated into the programme or students have to consult technical literature in English.
Apart from technical qualifications, the everyday professional life of business administrators and economists also requires soft skills such as communication skills and the ability to work in a team, as well as creativity.
