Will I get in
The programme has an admission restriction: the average grade of your certificate, converted to the German scale, decides. The cut-off changes every year — last year's value shows the order of magnitude, not a promise.
How the selection works and how strong the competition is — we go through it against your certificate when we select programmes for you.

What you study
At Leuphana College, the Bachelor degree programme consists of four components: the course starts
with Leuphana Semester, in which you learn the basic methodology and cover the fundamental
areas for an academic degree in your International Business Administration and Entrepreneurship
major. From the second semester, your Bachelor programme is divided in to a major (main subject),
minor (subsidiary subject) and Complementary Studies. In Complementary Studies, you explore
the approaches taken and methods used in other disciplines and explore socially relevant questions.
The full curriculum and the programme's parameters are part of programme selection: we compare them with your profile.
Pick programmesCareer
The broad fundamental and methodological knowledge and responsible competences in the areas
of management, entrepreneurship, and further related subjects will qualify you for work in various
classic business divisions, research institutes and public organisations. You are qualified to startup
new businesses or, alternatively, begin a Masters programme. By combining the International
Business Administration & Entrepreneurship main subject with one of the various minor subjects,
you can choose your own specialisation, pursuing careers in many fields.
