About the school

Vision
To be known as a progressive interdisciplinary institution for reflecting on responsibility and social challenges in research and teaching.

Mission
Advancing knowledge, entrepreneurial thinking, and responsible action for business and society.

We understand entrepreneurship as a key competence to identify, seize and create opportunities that challenge existing and often unquestioned structures and thus create economic, ecological or social added value. Entrepreneurship expresses itself in the form of projects. These can include, for example, the establishment of a start-up, but also the implementation of an innovation in an existing organization. The aim of such projects is to solve practical problems and gain new insights.

The School of Management and Technology is the academic home of more than 2,200 Bachelor and Master students as well as researchers - 45 professors and 80 research assistants -from the fields of Management, Business Informatics, Engineering and Psychology. The interrelations and collaborations between these disciplines are very important to the members of the School, which is expressed through the interdisciplinary degree programs as well as manifold cross-departmental research efforts.

The focus topics of the School are reflected in its degree programs: 4 major and 8 minor programs at the College, 9 master's programs and 5 doctoral programs at the Graduate School, and 15 part-time programs at the Professional School provide academic training in the fields of Business Administration, Business Information Systems, Business Education, and Engineering, as well as Management and Entrepreneurship, Accounting and Finance, and Organizational Psychology.
