Technical Business Administration

Coordinator: Prof. Dr. Eva Erhardt

The Faculty of Technical Business Administration was founded in 1989 with the vision of the great potential that would occur if not only business people and engineers but also computer scientists and business lawyers would work together and combine their expert knowledge and experience.

Nowadays, with over 1000 students, the faculty is one of the top places to go for students in all of Germany and is one of the showpieces for the region of South Westphalia – offering bachelor and master courses including

  • Business Administration and Engineering,
  • Business Administration and Informatics and
  • Business Law.

Our faculty is located in the heart of the export driven South-Westphalia region, where many technology-driven hidden champions have their headquarters managing their global business activities worldwide.

During our summer term we are opening our doors for international exchange students from all-over the world. These students can choose from a wide variety of lectures ranging from general management, international management to language skills. All courses are taught in English.

The coordinators will advise you as to which lectures or practical trainings you should attend and which exams to sit. You should contact your coordinator before your stay and work out a Learning Agreement with him/her.
