Mission Statement

Committed to a goal-oriented working style, we achieve optimal results in our areas of activity – teaching, continuing education, and research – while taking into account the interests of our stakeholders and making the best possible use of experience and feedback to develop our skills further.

In teaching, we strive to provide students with scientifically sound knowledge of economics and business administration that is geared toward practical needs. In addition, we offer applied scientific training and continuing education.

The aim is to provide students – in addition to their engineering and scientific qualifications – with methodological skills for processing and solving business management problems and social skills in terms of leadership and communication techniques.

We want to meet the economy's needs in research and continuing education innovatively and highly. This is to be achieved through the use of internal synergies in a team-oriented manner while applying and further expanding our core competencies. This will be accompanied by target group-specific communication with our stakeholders.

The knowledge acquired through research activities is made available to industry and science in the form of publications and presentations.

It is part of our self-image to pursue our goals and tasks in a scientifically sound, quality- and practice-oriented manner at the highest level and to continuously improve the processes necessary for this.

We maintain cooperation with our partners and are constantly developing our knowledge network in line with our strategic orientation.

In applied research we focus on the areas:

  • Resource Economics
  • Energy Management
  • Business Analytics
