Bachelor of Science in Business Economics
Our programme focuses on the study of businesses and their functional domains: how and why a company is established, how it is financed, how it organises itself administratively, how it produces goods and services, how it markets and sells those goods and services, how it deals with personnel and how the company’s management coordinates and steers all those activities.
