Other special featuresApplicants will have a student buddy at their side for individual questions from the start. This reflects the philosophy of the business faculty: you study with us as an individual person and not as a "mere student ID number". The courses are characterised by a wide range of options (languages and specialisations), so that you can largely tailor the course to your interests. In numerous electives you study together with your fellow students from the other Bachelor courses.
