Studying Economics means: analysing economic activities of consumers, businesses and public institutions. Economics focuses on the basic economic interrelations in a society, on the level of the operating unities (microeconomics) as well as on the macroeconomic level. Business administration focuses on the economic interrelations of single businesses and their operational processes.
The programme teaches you not only about economics but also the fundamentals of business administration and helps you to understand current economics as well as political topics.
