Betriebswirtschaftslehre

Study concept

After successfully completing a Bachelor of Science (B.Sc.), students can alternatively embark on a consecutive two-year Master's degree program in Business Administration (M.Sc.) to start their career. The analysis of institutions and their role in entrepreneurial income is less generalist than in the Bachelor of Business Administration; rather, the chosen specialisation - and, in case of doubt, an even higher level of supervision - characterises the course content.

Please note that this is a German-language degree program. At TUBAF we offer a variety of English Master's degree programs. Click here for an overview.

Suitable Bachelor's degree programs at TUBAF

Our Bachelor of Business Administration is the ideal prerequisite for this study program.

In Freiberg I acquired a lot of specialised knowledge, a very good basis for the start of my professional life and I certainly also benefited from the excellent reputation of the TU Bergakademie Freiberg.
