Our degree course is characterised by 3 special features. First, we offer great flexibility. Students do not have to commit to a technical specialisation. Instead, they can set individual priorities with regard to technical and economic content. Second, our range of courses has a very high proportion of IT. This optimally prepares students for digitisation. Third, the degree course is clearly assigned to the faculty. Our range of courses including Business and IT is therefore tailored directly to industrial engineers.

Apart from the university's central service facilities to promote course-based stays abroad, the KIT department of Economics also has its own International Relations Office, which coordinates the international collaborations of KIT and serves as a first contact point for subject-based advice for KIT students and international exchange students. It is here that Industrial Engineering students receive specific support and assistance in the planning and implementation of their stays abroad.

We are one of the leading technology-oriented economics faculties. Anchored in Business Administration (e.g. Finance, Management, Marketing and Operations) and Economics (e.g. Microeconomics and Econometrics), we focus on issues related to new developments in computer science, engineering and mathematics. Topics include digital transformation and economic aspects of the energy transition. In research, we use the "Karlsruhe Decision & Design Lab", one of the world's largest computer-based experimental laboratories.

The KIT places great value on the exchange between the different disciplines. The so-called KIT centres serve this purpose. The Faculty of Business and Economics is in constant collaboration with technical and scientific subjects, especially in the centres "Energy", "Mobility Systems", "People and Technology" and "Mathematics in the Natural, Engineering and Economic Sciences". In addition, the Faculty of Economics actively seeks contact with companies, for example from the IT, energy and automotive industries, with the help of a newly established group of partners.
