Why study International Business with Logistics and International Trade?
The Bachelor’s degree programme in International Business with Logistics and International Trade – dual (B.A.) combines in-depth business management knowledge with international business relations, as well as the fields of international trade and logistics. You will learn to understand international markets and business processes, design global supply chains, organise foreign trade transactions and support companies in competing on the international stage.
The dual study model combines theory and practice in a block format: a study phase of around 12 weeks at the university is followed by an examination period at the university, before the next practical phase of approximately 12 weeks begins at the partner company. Thereafter, the university and the company alternate again. This enables you to apply the knowledge acquired during your studies directly within the company and to deepen your understanding through specific tasks and projects. Direct interaction with lecturers and close collaboration with the partner company create a personalised and practical study experience.
International course content and a wide range of options allow you to set your own individual academic priorities. At the same time, you gain extensive professional experience whilst still studying, become familiar with different areas of the business and establish your first professional contacts.
A Bachelor of Arts degree opens up a wide range of career prospects – for example, in the fields of foreign trade, international marketing and sales, procurement and supply chain management, logistics and international project management.
