New Our new corporate identity
The Austrian economy thrives on exports and relations with other countries. In this context, the connection to Eastern and South-Eastern Europe plays an important role not only for historical but also for economic reasons. The degree programme "International Business Relations" already set this focus more than 25 years ago - with lasting success. In addition to well-founded business knowledge and subject-specific know-how, graduates have valuable communicative and intercultural skills in a specialisation, which open up career opportunities for them in an international context. Graduates work in various sectors and fields of activity in the Austrian and international economy.
The degree programme International Business Relations can be studied full-time or part-time. For the part-time study programme, you already bring several years of work experience to the study programme. Full-time students, on the other hand, have few professional obligations; they gain international experience in summer courses and professional internships in Central and Eastern Europe. Some also complete a semester abroad at a partner university - all within the framework of the curriculum without losing a semester.
"In the working world it is important to also work with people from other cultures. That's why the Bachelor's degree programme in International Business Relations at UAS Burgenland is not only about business and languages, but also about developing intercultural skills."

Students with a mother tongue other than German must prove their German language skills during the admission process (language level C1 is expected).
Decision on admission
The applicants will be informed about the admission. Applications after the application deadline will be considered in a waiting list.
