Berlin School of Business and Innovation (BSBI)

Berlin , Berlin ,Germany

BA in Economics and Business Administration with Foundation Diploma

Taking this four-year degree course will get your studies off to a flying start. The course includes a foundation year where we offer students from a variety of backgrounds and skills, a broad subject knowledge base that will introduce them to practical skills, research techniques and ways of thinking which have traditionally been out of reach.

The additional foundation year gives students the opportunity to grow academically and personally in a university environment. This allows students to have more time to reinforce and complement existing understanding and perform to their full potential over the course of the four-year degree.

What will you experience?
Throughout the four-year programme, you’ll cover a multi-disciplinary range of subjects to develop your knowledge in areas such as finance, marketing, human resources and much more. You’ll have ample opportunity to work with your tutors and fellow students to discuss topics and work on interactive projects.

You’ll learn in well-facilitated classrooms with access to all the resources required for your studies including textbooks, academic trade journals, online lectures and much more. Additionally, all students have access to the Virtual Learning Environment (VLE) which has many e-resources. You’ll also participate in experience field trips and practical workshops.

All students have the option to learn the German language.

Programme Structure
The majority of your work will be completed in groups and on-going support will be provided through the use of structured, targeted individual tutorials and online tutorials.

The learning and teaching will consist of a variety of elements such as lectures, tutorials, workshops, animated/non-animated video, practical work, seminars and trips. The assessment strategy will include individual/group reports and/or presentations, case studies, essays, open/closed book exams, portfolio development, reflective journals and experiential work based activities.

The modules of this programme are offered via the blended learning method. Students will attend the online modules via the UNINETTUNO University platform and face-to-face at the BSBI campus in Berlin.
