Bachelor of Arts BWL-International Business (English Language)

You are curious about IKA and are open to the world.
You know that shaking your head in Bulgaria means yes, and that, in Japan, bowing means more than a handshake. You do not see language as a barrier but rather as a welcome opportunity to get to know other cultures. Then you should undertake a dual study to become a Bachelor of Arts BWL-International business (m/f/diverse) with IKA.

Your studies will be structured as follows.

You will study for 3 years at the Dual University Lörrach and will combine theoretical technical knowledge from the university and practical career experience at IKA on an alternating three-month schedule.

You will have both a theory semester and an intern semester abroad.
In the 1^st and 2^nd year of study you will produce a practical project each year; in the 3^rd year of study, your Bachelor Thesis. The Project and Bachelor Theses will be written at IKA, not at the university.

This what you will learn at the university.

The Curriculum is structured so that you acquire a well-founded knowledge of business. Your methodical, language, social and intercultural competences will be promoted.
In your two-year basic study the emphasis is on basic business subjects such as general business administration, financial book-keeping, financing and investment, controlling, marketing, economics, law, mathematics, intercultural competence, personnel and project management.
In the one-year in-depth study you can specialize and choose from one of five modules, such as International Sales and Marketing or International Human Resources.
All lectures, seminars workshops and examinations will be in English. The combination of technical and language competence prepares you for working internationally.

You will support our Sales and marketing with the processing of international customer inquiries, the preparation of quotations, the processing of customer orders, the management of customer master data, and the acquisition of new customers.
