Advantages for companies

The HSBA Hamburg School of Business Administration is the partner of companies in the training of highly qualified young specialists and executives. Practical orientation and a theoretical background form an ideal synthesis: training in the company and a study in business administration are combined on a professional level, whereby a broadly based period of training is of far greater benefit than special knowledge which soon becomes out-of-date anyway.


A B.A. study covers a wide range of commercial functions. It inculdes: 

• Management tasks on the various hierarchical levels of a company, i.e. tasks in the planning, decision-making, organisation, control and supervision of the value-added process, which demand a high degree of own initiative as well as the ability to motivate and inspire when leading employees.
• Understanding business relationships and implementing complex, multi-dimensional, targeted strategies which are influenced by the strategic success factors of costs, quality and time.
• Strategic thinking and acting
  

Depending on the individual task, there is a wide variety of work and demands as well as various degrees of responsibility. This wide range of opportunities corresponds to that of other university graduates of Business Administration.


The graduates of the HSBA are able to

• apply business tools which have been developed according to scientific knowledge to the solution of practical problems. They can recognise and assess business processes in their entire context and are able to assume specialist and executive functions in management in the most varied business areas after relevant orientation and experience.
• A considerable advantage of the HSBA in comparison with other universities is the short and compact study time of three years.
• The companies can train their future specialists and executives systematically and promote company-specific qualifications while the students are still studying.
• Training and studying require a high degree of wilingness to perform and the ability to deal with stress: good prerequistes for making a career.
• When the students have graduated, companies can put them into the “right jobs” according to the skills acquired during their training and studying.
• During the periods of training and studying, companies have the chance to benefit especially from the company-related subjects in the students’ project and Bachlor work.
