In addition to the specialization modules in business administration and economics, students may choose up to 18 out of 180 CP – three modules of 6 CP each – from a range of other courses, some of which are offered outside the field of economics. Options include, for example, leading a tutorial, Business Ethics, and Psychology for Economists. The complete list of available courses can be found in the module catalog. <\/p>\n\n\n<\/jgu-base-tabsitem>\n\n\n \n<\/jgu-base-heading>\n\n\n\n

Das Studium ist in Module strukturiert, die sich aus Lehrveranstaltungen und Pr\u00fcfungen zusammensetzen. Die verbindliche Zusammensetzung legt die Pr\u00fcfungsordnung fest. Detaillierte inhaltliche Beschreibungen finden Sie im Modulhandbuch des Studiengangs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Der Stellenwert der Module in der Endnote wird durch Leistungspunkte (LP) ausgedr\u00fcckt. Ein Leistungspunkt entspricht einer Arbeitsleistung von etwa 30 Stunden (Kontaktzeit und Selbststudium).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Die dominierenden Lehrveranstaltungsformen sind Vorlesung (VL) und \u00dcbung (\u00dc). Dazu kommen bspw. Seminar (S), Projektseminar (PS) und Kolloquium (Ko).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Module schlie\u00dfen in der Regel mit einer Pr\u00fcfung in Form einer Klausur oder E-Klausur zu Beginn der vorlesungsfreien Zeit ab. Wiederholungstermine werden am Ende der vorlesungsfreien Zeit des gleichen Semester angeboten, d.h. vor Beginn des n\u00e4chsten Semesters. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pflichtmodule m\u00fcssen bestanden werden. Bei Wahlpflichtmodulen gibt es eine gr\u00f6\u00dfere Auswahl, aus der eine bestimmte Mindest- und H\u00f6chstanzahl an Angeboten innerhalb eines Bereichs zu belegen ist. Gew\u00e4hlte Wahlpflichtmodule m\u00fcssen bestanden werden, jedoch k\u00f6nnen Studierende zweimal ein nicht-bestandenes Wahlpflichtmodul durch ein anderes ersetzen (aka \u201eJoker\u201c).<\/p>\n\n\n<\/jgu-base-tabsitem>\n\n\n \n<\/jgu-base-heading>\n\n\n\n

Bevor Sie ein Studium an der Universit\u00e4t aufnehmen k\u00f6nnen, ben\u00f6tigen Sie eine Hochschul\u00adzugangs\u00adberechtigung. In der Regel ist dies das Abiturzeugnis.<\/p>\n\n\n<\/jgu-base-tabsitem>\n\n\n \n\n

\u00dcbersteigt die Zahl der Bewerbungen regelm\u00e4\u00dfig und erheblich die Zahl der Studienpl\u00e4tze, wird nur eine beschr\u00e4nkte Zahl von Zulassungen ausgesprochen (Zulassungsbeschr\u00e4nkung). Der Bachelorstudiengang ist im 1. – 3. Fachsemester universit\u00e4tsintern zulassungsbeschr\u00e4nkt. Zu Ihrer Orientierung gibt es eine\u00a0\u00dcbersicht \u00fcber die NC-Werte der vergangenen Semester<\/a> f\u00fcr den B.Sc. in Wirtschaftswissenschaften. Der NC-Wert spiegelt wider, welche Bewerbungen noch erfolgreich waren.<\/p>\n\n\n<\/jgu-base-tabsitem>\n\n<\/jgu-base-tabs><\/div><\/div>\n<\/jgu-base-section>\n

<\/div>\n\n\n<\/jgu-base-heading>\n\n\n\n

The application for the B.Sc. Business and Economics<\/strong> takes place online.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Note for applicants with transferable credits: In the winter semester 2025\/26, applications for the first semester will follow the new examination regulations. Applications for higher semesters will still be based on the previous regulations. In the semesters that follow, this threshold will be raised step by step. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
