Are you interested in management and doing business? Do you want to know more about the business strategies of multinational corporations that operate in various countries? If so, then International Business Administration might be the right Bachelor's programme for you.

You will look at the ins and outs of how a business operates and how businesses deal with internal and external changes. You will learn to analyse what can be improved in corporate management and what effects markets have on businesses.

This programme is suited for people with a broad interest in conducting business and managing organisations.

Why study International Business Administration?

• You will be taught a wider range of perspectives than 'just' economics or IT in organisations.
• More focus on acquiring research skills than in other business programmes in the Netherlands
• A personal approach to education and small-scale teaching
• Six months of studying or internship abroad as optional or fixed part of the programme

What will you learn?

International Business Administration offers you a broad range of topics, with consideration not only for international management, but also for psychology, sociology, communication, economics, and law. For example, there is ample consideration given to the role of social and cultural aspects within organisations. After all, conducting good business is a job involving extensive human interaction.

You will look at the interaction between all stakeholders involved, such as managers, employees, shareholders and clients; a framework that is even more complex and interesting within international interactions.
