Fit for the future - analyses and assessments of companies and financial service providers and their regulation - for business, politics and science.
Our "Taxation, Accounting, Finance" (TAF) department is one of the largest teaching and research units within the Faculty of Business Administration and Economics at Paderborn University. Competitive research, internationality, subject area and methodological expertise as well as practical relevance characterise this department in teaching and research.
Our research
In constant dialogue with practitioners, our teaching and research contribute to a sound and evidence-based understanding of the economy and to the objectification of debates on new regulation.
Study & Teaching
Our Bachelor's and Master's degree programmes focus on the interaction of taxes, accounting and financing in entrepreneurial decision-making processes.
„The TAF Master's programme was perfectly tailored to my interests. The practical and interdisciplinary cooperation modules were the ideal basis for starting my career. Today I benefit directly from what I learnt in my day-to-day work in Controlling.”
„My fascination for research was triggered by completing a Master's degree in Taxation, Accounting and Finance and working as a research assistant at the department. The interdisciplinary knowledge I acquired during my studies helps me every day on my way to my doctorate.”
„The Master in Taxation, Accounting and Finance was the perfect supplement for me. The combination of my education in banking, the work at the department and the practical content from my studies means that I am entering the professional world with an extensive portfolio of knowledge and skills.”
