A formula for success: theoretical knowledge + practical experience
The programme is built on three pillars.
Semesters 1 & 2
The basics
Acquiring sound basic knowledge is important for your future success. That’s why the curriculum includes business administration, economics and law. You will learn about information technology and enhance your social and (English) language skills.
Of course, the focus is also on gaining expertise in the healthcare sector: numerous courses are tailored to the special features of the healthcare industry and the healthcare sector. For instance, you will learn about the basics of medical and nursing care, as well as about structures, players and processes in the healthcare system and health economics.
Semesters 3–6
Advanced courses
In the following 4 semesters, you will take the next step: You will deepen the knowledge you have built up during your studies and focus on healthcare facilities, pharmaceutical and medical device management and gain further insights into developments in e-health and public health. Human resource management, quality management and corporate management will enhance your skills profile as a business economist in healthcare.
In the 6th semester, you have the opportunity to enhance your skills by choosing an elective – either Moderation or Negotiation.
Your bachelor thesis will give you the opportunity to repeat and deepen your knowledge of specific topics from an academic viewpoint.
Semesters 1–6
Practical experience
The majority of the students on the part-time programme work alongside their studies. The benefit for you: You gain valuable professional experience or can continue working for your current employer. As your colleagues also work in the healthcare sector, there is a lively exchange of ideas in class. You can debate questions in groups and share your own experiences with your fellow students.
Case studies, project work and lecturers from the healthcare sector are all part of the programme’s strong practical focus.
