About the faculty

Our goal is to convey current knowledge from research in teaching and to actively develop the subject through research. Both traditional and modern economics are widely represented in the faculty within the framework of business administration, international business studies, business informatics, business education and economics. Other important areas of specialization are offered in business law, statistics and business English. In particular, we focus on economics in the knowledge and information society. A sign of this is that the departments of Information Systems and Business Education have a breadth that is unusual in Germany. Our research and teaching are internationally oriented and prepare graduates for today's global economy. We offer our students a variety of established exchange programs at foreign universities. We welcome a number of new students coming to us from all over the world every year and regularly invite visiting professors from abroad. We would be delighted if you visit our faculty virtually online and on campus.
