Programme content

Salam! Bonjour! Bun? ziua! – Say hello to the world of business!

In the age of globalization, speaking a common language has never been more important for business, tourism and political relations. Our bachelor’s programme in ‘Business and Languages’ will prepare you for work in an international setting. After all, hardly any large company can do without business experts and managers with an international flair.

If you browse the programmes offered by our faculty, you will come across the terms ‘Business Administration’ and ‘Economics’. But do you know the difference? This is quite important, because they are two of the basic aspects of the study programme in addition to your foreign language tuition, business information systems and scientific methods.

Business Administration mainly deals with processes involving companies, such as planning, logistics, marketing and computational models for decisions and actions. Economics looks at the bigger picture by studying macroeconomic relationships. Why do petrol prices fluctuate so much? How much national debt can we actually afford? These are some of the questions addressed by economists. A key focus is placed on the development of currencies and prices, as well as political decisions and the state of the economy.

Thanks to your specialist knowledge in Economics and Business Administration and a foreign language, you will graduate with a double qualification. And you will also focus on the world’s major language, as Business English is taught alongside the foundations of intercultural business communication.

So… what language do you want to specialize in? You have a huge choice at the Friedrich Schiller University Jena: Bulgarian, Polish, Czech, Russian, Serbian / Croatian, Portuguese, French, Italian, Romanian, Spanish or Arabic. You will only need prior knowledge (A2 level) if you choose to study French.

Structure

Our bachelor’s programme is the first degree qualifying graduates to work in their profession. The standard length of the study programme is six semesters, and different types of courses are offered for each module (e.g. seminars, lectures or exercises).

If you take a single-subject bachelor’s programme in ‘Business and Languages’, the combined field of study will comprise 180 credits (ECTS for short; 1?ECTS = 30?hours for attendance, preparation and follow-up work, private study, assessed coursework and examinations).

After the first two semesters, you will be able to choose a focus:

  • Language: a greater focus on linguistic, cultural and literary skills; this is a requirement for undertaking a master’s degree in your chosen language

  • Business: the acquisition of specialist knowledge of economic affairs; this is a requirement for entering the world of management and/or undertaking a master’s programme in Business Administration or Economics

Overview of study profiles

For first-year students without any prior knowledge of Spanish or Italian, compulsory preliminary courses (level A1) are held before the beginning of the lecture period.
