Special features regarding teachingIn teaching, great importance is placed on the practical application of economic theories. The course already signals this with its descriptive title "Applied Economics". In groups of max. 40 students, teaching methods are used that actively involve the students. Professors are supported in their professional development as teachers through university-didactic programmes. A large elective area gives students the opportunity to set their own priorities, for example in the fields of International Economy, Sustainable Development or Finance.
-
Special features regarding the international orientationThe Faculty of Economics and Social Sciences has 35 years of experience in the international academic field. Students of Applied Economics benefit from this through an integrated semester abroad, an optional practical phase abroad and lectures in English. There are also interesting summer and winter schools during the semester break or language courses, for example in Spanish, Russian or Chinese. The students are supported by the course coordinator and the International Faculty Office.
