DBA (Doctor of Business Administration) programme

In the DBA programme, students write an application-oriented research thesis while working, drawing on their professional experience, which enables them to obtain a doctoral degree (Dr.) recognized in Germany. The Doctor Degree in Business Administration (DBA) is thus an application-oriented doctoral programme geared to the needs of industry and business.
