Course structure

Contents of the Bachelor of Business Administration programme

Compulsory modules such as human resources management, marketing and investment form the basis of your dual study programme in business administration (Bachelor of Arts). For the acquisition of industry competence, the teaching of relevant knowledge during the practical phases in your company is of particular importance. The DHSH teaches the theory through the appropriate industry modules in semesters one to four. You can find out more about the exact contents under the respective focus areas.

Practical projects

In a total of five practical projects, business management issues from the theory phases are transferred to complex business practice settings. In the course of your studies, you will acquire the methodological competence to write your Bachelor's thesis at the end of the programme.

Elective modules

During the fifth and sixth semester, you choose two specialisations, each with two compulsory elective modules, in consultation with your employer. The decision is based in particular on your interests as well as your future career aspirations or the possibilities of employment in the company.

Additional qualifications

A wide range of additional courses rounds off the dual study programme at DHSH. For example, you can expand your foreign language skills or your methodological and social skills (e.g. self-management or negotiation management) as needed.

Bachelor thesis and colloquium

At the end of your studies, you will write your Bachelor's thesis, in which you analyse a real-life business issue and develop practical recommendations for your company. You write the thesis over eight weeks during the practical phase of the sixth semester. The final exam is the colloquium, in which you will be questioned orally on the topic of your Bachelor's thesis.
