International Business & Law Print E-mail
The past few decades have been characterized by a fundamental change in the education curricula of both, the legal and the economic sciences. Economics, particularly business administration and management-oriented subjects, have experienced a considerable development accompanied by an increasing juridification, whereas in law, economic competencies are gaining in importance. This trend is eclipsed by a high degree of specialization and internationalization in both disciplines. As a result of these developments, an entirely new and future-oriented field of activity is being created right at the interface between economics and law, offering excellent career prospects to graduates.

Increasing interdependence between national and international markets and the complexity of transnational business affairs challenge not only large multinationals, but also small and medium-sized companies. Hence, career paths of globally thinking entrepreneurs in internationally active companies require profound professional and methodical skills as well as a sound knowledge of languages.
