Business administration with focus on marketing

Your stud­ies will pro­vide you with a broad exper­tise and qual­ify you for var­i­ous, multi-​faceted man­age­ment tasks in all sec­tors of the econ­omy. So all doors remain open to you with a busi­ness stud­ies degree, but you should focus on a direc­tion that is par­tic­u­larly fun for you dur­ing your stud­ies. If you are aware of your spe­cial inter­ests and abil­i­ties, a wide range of career paths is open to you: e.g. in man­age­ment con­sult­ing, human resources, logis­tics, project plan­ning or finance.

With the addi­tion of the mar­ket­ing spe­cialty you will also qual­ify for a pos­si­ble entry into the diverse, var­ied mar­ket­ing indus­try. In gen­eral you learn to develop strate­gies for a suc­cess­ful mar­ket place­ment in order to con­vince peo­ple of a cer­tain prod­uct, a ser­vice or even an entire com­pany. This means that a wide vari­ety of career oppor­tu­ni­ties await you: for exam­ple as an (online) mar­ket­ing man­ager, prod­uct man­ager, sales man­ager, media plan­ner or mar­ket researcher.

Your dual stud­ies at IP Dynam­ics fol­low a struc­tured process that is deter­mined by a reg­u­lar alter­na­tion between courses and prac­ti­cal work. On two fixed days per week you go to the acad­emy for your stud­ies, on the other three days to work in the com­pany. Your every­day study life includes all learn­ing fields of busi­ness admin­is­tra­tion, such as account­ing, orga­ni­za­tion and cor­po­rate and per­son­nel man­age­ment, law, cor­po­rate man­age­ment and busi­ness math­e­mat­ics.

Once per semes­ter you will spend two weeks at a time at any loca­tion of the acad­emy. Dur­ing these focus phases you will get to know the learn­ing fields of your mar­ket­ing field, e.g. intro­duc­tion to mar­ket­ing & dig­i­tal media, design and con­trol­ling of mar­ket­ing com­mu­ni­ca­tion as well as event and trade fair com­mu­ni­ca­tion. In the last semes­ter, you can also secure your addi­tional qual­i­fi­ca­tion as a Dig­i­tal Mar­ket­ing Man­ager with a com­pul­sory elec­tive mod­ule.
