Business Mathematics, B.Sc.
Mathematical formulas and processes are used in a variety of ways in banks, insurance companies and commercial enterprises of all kinds. Their successful use requires a deeper understanding of the methods. In-demand activities such as modelling, planning and problem solving require an analytical approach.
The bachelor's programme in Business Mathematics is geared towards these qualifications. After learning the basics of mathematics, the students learn about the main areas of application of mathematics in business.

The full curriculum and the programme's parameters are part of programme selection: we compare them with your profile.
Pick programmesCareer
The bachelor's programme has the technical goal of providing students with a university education in mathematics. The students acquire a degree according to international standards, which qualifies them for demanding professional activities in the field of mathematics, in particular business mathematics. With a view to their later career, they should learn to a high degree how to structure problems in business, administration and financial services, to select and use suitable solution methods and to classify the results correctly.

The procedure and the set of documents depend on your certificate. We check the university's requirements against your documents and give you a list: what to submit, how to certify and translate it, where and when to apply.
Check the requirementsHow to get into this programme
- 1Check your certificate and its recognitionDirect admission, a year at a university at home, or Studienkolleg first — this decides the whole plan.
- 2German up to C1 and a certificateDSH or TestDaF has to be passed before you apply.
- 3Documents and translationsCertified translations of the certificate and transcript, an APS if required. 3–4 weeks.
- 4Application via uni-assist until 15.01uni-assist checks documents for 4–6 weeks — send them well before the deadline.
- 5Admission, visa, movingPlan 2–3 months for the visa and the blocked account in parallel.
How to apply
You can submit the application yourself or with our help — the university decides on admission in both cases.
Applications go through the university's portal or uni-assist. Typical mistakes:
- ×incorrectly made certified copies and translations
- ×a wrong set of documents
- ×the application submitted the wrong way
- ×errors or gaps in the application form
- ×the application submitted at the wrong time — too early or too late
An incomplete or incorrectly prepared application is excluded from the selection — it can no longer be corrected after the deadline.
StudyInFocus does not represent the university and does not influence the admission decision. We do not sell study places and do not guarantee admission — this is a service for preparing and submitting documents on the applicant's side.
If your level is not enough yet
The two most common stoppers are a language level below the requirement and a certificate without direct admission. Both can be solved, but they take months — plan them now, not after a rejection.
