Internationality in the degree program
In teaching, the department organises the "International Economics and Management" course, which can be studied in English and provides students from many different countries with the relevant specialist knowledge of economic processes and methodological skills that equip them for the regional, national and international labour market.
Gain international experience during your studies
The doors are already open to students during their studies to get to know other countries as part of exchange semesters or organised programmes with the option of a double Master's degree.
The pandemic, which has inevitably changed teaching considerably, has once again made it clear to us how important it is to learn with and from each other. We have met the task of continuing to make this possible with great commitment
and some success.
Final theses
The Department of Economics participates in the centralised application procedure for th eses of the Faculty of Business Administration and Economics. In principle, any student of Paderborn University can apply for a thesis at one of the professorships of the Department of Economics. You should be interested in the topics and research areas of the respective professorship and ideally be able to document this in your previous course of study. The topic of the thesis is determined by the respective professorship. As a rule, you have the right to make your own suggestions, but these do not have to be taken up.
