It is characterized by a strong focus on methods, which is indispensable in modern business studies. In the course of their studies, students can integrate project work, practical phases or a semester abroad in addition to learning the basics of business studies. Structure of the Program The Bachelor's degree course in Business Studies (BWL) has a standard period of study of six semesters and concludes with the degree "Bachelor of Science" (B.Sc.). The range of subjects on the Business Studies and the Economics degree programs is identical in the first two semesters, so that students can switch between the two courses up to the third semester.

All of these include three specialist seminars, which mainly focus on teaching specialist knowledge as well as methods and their application, and a project module, in which students apply what they have learned to an individual problem. With the "free choice" area (Freie Wahl), the major also includes a large proportion of freely selectable courses. Here, for example, students can study further subject content, take General Studies courses to deepen their soft skills or complete an internship.

The registration requires the username and password of the account given by the Center for Networks (ZfN) for e-mail and other network services. Students receive an activation code and an activation password with their enrollment documents. At the beginning of the semester you should register for your courses via Stud.IP. Here there are course materials and announcements from teachers. Students can also manage their timetable, use discussion forums, access the bulletin board, and much more.

A creditable internship has a minimum length of eight weeks and cannot start before the end of the lecture period of the second semester. Students need to submit an internship report within a specified period. The Career Center of the University of Bremen and the Office for Practice and Transfer of the Faculty of Business Studies and Economics offer support in searching for internships. Please find further information on internships in the <a class="internalLink" href="t3://page?uid=20845" title="Opens internal link in current window">Practice and Transfer</a> section. Please note: Internships completed before the start of your studies cannot be credited. Completed vocational training can replace the internship. The faculty’s internship officer will check the content of internships and vocational trainings prior to recognition.

Based on the recommended study plan, the best time to integrate a semester abroad is the third year of study. The freedom of choice in the major offers a high degree of flexibility in terms of recognition options. This means that you can integrate a semester abroad into your studies without risking an overall delay. Please find detailed information on studying abroad on the faculty's webpage&nbsp; in the section <a class="internalLink" href="t3://page?uid=20551" title="Opens internal link in current window">International Affairs - Outgoings</a>.
