THIS IS HOW VARIED YOUR STUDIES WILL BE WITH US
- LECTURES
The content of our lectures is strongly oriented towards practice. Many topics are explained using current examples and discussed together. This makes our lectures highly interactive.
- PRACTICE
Consolidating and deepening acquired skills - that's what the practical exercises are all about. For example, you will work on case studies together with other students and - with the support of your professor – learn how to solve tasks by yourselves.
- SEMINARS
In our seminars, you will learn how to apply scientific methods: On the basis of specialist literature, you will deal with a concrete topic in a well-founded manner and work on it in a seminar paper.
- PRACTICAL SEMINARS
In our practical seminars, the focus is on theory-practice transfer. You will deal with concrete practical questions and apply the scientific know-how you have acquired.
- PRACTICAL PROJECTS
In our practical projects, you will work on a practical issue in your company under the guidance of your professor. The issue will be developed together with your practice partner.
- INTEGRATED LECTURES
With digital media such as videos, presentations or podcasts, you independently acquire content, which you then deepen in a practical manner in the subsequent attendance phases. You benefit from all the advantages of a classic lecture but also from more flexibility, because you can learn when, how and where you want!
