About us

A warm welcome at the department of business

Business issues pervade our professional and private lives. So what could be more natural than to take a closer look at the background and possible solutions? If you are enthusiastic about this, then you have come to the right place!

The Department of Applied Sciences at Fulda University of Applied Sciences offers prospective and current students a comprehensive range of business administration and business law study programmes. The offer is characterised by an applied and at the same time academic training with manageable group sizes. Internationality is an elementary component of many of our study programmes: it is reflected in the course content, mandatory semesters abroad and a global network of partner universities.

For enterprises, we are a reliable partner for joint projects, be it in application-related research, academic advisory services and continuing education or in the field of teaching, for example in the form of presentations, case studies or field trips.
