Investigating the Dynamics of Accounting & Taxation

Our Chair of Business Administration, in particular Corporate Taxation, endeavours to gain comprehensive knowledge at the interface between accounting and business taxation. We are particularly interested in the empirical investigation of economic interdependencies. Our aim is to prepare students for the challenges of modern business through excellent teaching and to expand their understanding of complex tax and accounting issues through innovative research.
