Special features regarding teaching in the bachelor's degree programme

The degree course teaches extensive professional skills. Lecture phases at the University and practical phases in companies change on a quarterly basis and enable students to contemplate and apply theoretical concepts. Communication and teamwork skills are promoted through a variety of interactive teaching formats. Ethical aspects are an integral component of the teaching concept. To support individual skills development, every student is assigned a professor as a mentor. Instruction is provided in small groups offering direct contact to teaching staff.

Special features regarding teaching in the master's programmes

The degree courses are characterised by the close involvement of practice representatives from different companies and fields of activity and are consistently geared to the requirements of the respective professional field. Instrumental skills are specifically promoted through integration of theory and practice. At the same time, students are enabled to engage in scientific work independently. Communication and teamwork skills are enhanced through a variety of interactive teaching formats. The concept includes ethical aspects and engagement within civil society.

Special features regarding the international orientation

All students of the Faculty of Business Administration at FHDW Hannover gain international experience. All students in a class take part in a Blended Intensive Programme (BIP) organised by FHDW Hannover and thus experience "internationalisation at home". In addition, FHDW Hannover sends participants to various BIPs of our partner universities, participates in Collaborative Online International Learning programmes (COILs) and facilitates stays abroad as part of international summer schools or work placements (funding via Erasmus+ and Promos).

Special features regarding the equipment

Very modern facilities in a newly renovated campus. All lecture rooms have modern camera systems for the transmission of lectures and collaborative exchange among students. A PC pool is also available to students and can be used daily between 07:00 - 22:00. Every student receives a comprehensive Office 365 licence for their studies. Subject-specific software and databases are made available.

Special features regarding research activities

The research projects are very application-oriented and have a strong focus on solving industry- or subject-specific questions.

Other special features

The degree programmes are characterised by a clear focus on values. Business ethics is an integral part of the curriculum and promotes responsible entrepreneurial action. Sustainability forms a substantive focus of its own in the Bachelor’s of Business Administration programme. Additionally, sustainability topics are integrated into almost all subjects – from management to finance to marketing. Students thus develop a holistic understanding of the economic, ecological and social contexts of modern corporate management.
