mission offer.

If you would like to study Business Adminis-

tration at the University of Mannheim, just

accept the offer and enroll in the University.

Semester starts at the beginning of Septem-

ber: You are now studying in the Schloss!

Three exciting years await you. But don’t wor-

ry, you will get all the information you need

for a successful start in your student life in the

welcome week.

START YOUR CAREER IN THE SCHLOSSThe Business Administration program at the Uni-

versity of Mannheim is broadly diversified and

provides the ideal basis for your future career.

You will gain a basic understanding of the differ-

ent fields of business administration and acquire

important management skills. Neighboring disci-

plines such as economics and law also form part

of the program. In addition, we want to give you

the opportunity to apply your knowledge in prac-

tice during your studies: Participating in one of the

numerous student initiatives will allow you to use

your expertise for social purposes. Furthermore,

we maintain an active network of corporate part-

ners in different industries: Interacting with com-

panies at workshops, presentations, and the annu-

al career fair, will give you the opportunity to get in

touch with interesting employers on our campus.

PROFIT FROM TOP-LEVEL RESEARCHOur professors contribute substantially to the

latest research developments and share their in-

sights with you.

You will certainly profit from the diversity and

timeliness of research findings, which are also re-

flected in teaching, at one of the largest business

schools in Germany. Apart from the classical fields

such as finance, taxation, and marketing, current

scientific issues in business ethics and business

informatics are also part of the program’s curri-

culum. Active participation in research projects is

also possible for students: As a student assistant

at one of our Chairs, you will gain valuable insight

into Germany’s cutting-edge business research.

This often lays the foundation for an academic ca-

reer. Many (Master’s) graduates choose to pursue a

subsequent doctoral degree.

EXPERIENCE INTERNATIONALITYThe semester abroad is an integral part of the

Bachelor’s program – but our own campus is also

clearly international.

Chinese, English, French, Italian, Japanese, Rus-

sian, and Spanish – in your first semester, you will

select one of these languages to learn or deepen

your skills. The integrated semester abroad is a

special international facet of the Bachelor’s pro-

gram: In their fifth semester, all students of a co-

hort leave the campus for half a year. Two hundred

partner universities worldwide give our students

the opportunity to gain intercultural experience

and vision. These partnerships are based on the

exchange principle and provide international-

ity for our own campus: every year about 600

students come to Mannheim for their semester

abroad. Our international academic calendar and

English-taught lectures make this possible with-

out problems.

“The difference in Mannheim is due to the many motivated stu-dents, who come together to make a change, are open about political and economic issues, and constant-ly scrutinize things.“
