Das Studium ist durch seine berufsbegleitende Konzeption auch für Berufstätige ohne Abitur aus allen wirtschaftlichen und rechtlichen Ausbildungsrichtungen geeignet.

The study programme is aimed at all interested parties who are looking for a generalist study programme that combines the topics of social, economic and ecological sustainability, governance, digitalisation, legal competences and business administration.
