General

A degree program consists of modules that are defined in the examination regulations and described in more detail in the module handbook. In terms of content and time, it makes sense to study these modules in a certain order. There is a sample study plan for each degree program, which shows you an ideal course of study. If you study in this way, you can complete your studies within the standard period of study. This is not always possible, so there may be individual deviations from the suggested course. When planning, you should bear in mind that not every module is offered in the winter and summer semesters and that some modules build on each other or have other participation requirements. The Student Advisory Service will help you to plan your studies individually.

The study components of English/American Studies comprise the area of culture and language, which includes the sub-subjects of regional and cultural studies and intercultural communication, linguistics and literary studies as well as language practice. In economics, the focus is on business administration and economics with optional specializations such as marketing and international management, private and public management, financial markets and financial management, ecological economics or geography and economics.

In addition, there are key qualifications in communication, methods and organization, some of which are taught in the area of culture and language, but are also offered in special modules - mathematics and statistics, for example, are indispensable in business. Students must complete an eight-week internship in Germany or abroad during their studies. Alternatively, a period of study at a university in an English-speaking country is also possible.
