Introduction
<img class=" image-element " src=" https://keystoneacademic-res.cloudinary.com/image/upload/q_auto,f_auto,w_743,c_limit/element/24/24806_header_tourimusundeventmanagement.jpg " alt=" 2 " title=" old= "2" />The full-time degree in business administration is an accredited, state-recognized course offered by the NBS Northern Business School university for management and security.
This course of study is offered at the NBS in two time models, namely full-time during the day for high school graduates and technical high school graduates and on Friday evenings and Saturdays for employed persons and trainees.
The special advantage: You can change the time model during your studies. For example, during a longer internship you are welcome to take part in courses in the extra-occupational time model and thus advance your studies quickly.
<halt="2>Die beruflichen Optionen</halt="2>
Graduates of business administration courses have a comprehensive insight into the company and accompany planning, management and control, they lead employees and make decisions on personnel issues. Technical and social skills, organizational skills and the ability to work independently are essential. You must know the interdependencies between the various departments and be able to correctly classify the resulting problems and prepare the necessary strategic decisions.
Tourism is a classic growth industry: Since the start of musicals in the mid-1980s, the number of overnight stays in Hamburg has increased by around 170%. In the year alt="2009, 4.4 million guests spent 8.19 million nights in the Hanseatic city. alt="According to information from Hamburg Tourismus, the number of visitors rose by a further 9,alt="2% in 2010, with the majority of the growth being generated from abroad (+11.9%). This underlines the internationality of this branch. In the year alt="201alt="2, Hamburg broke through the 10 million overnight stays mark for the first time. No other European city is developing as dynamically as the Hanseatic city. In line with the increasing demand, the volume of offers also increased constantly, which in turn speaks for the importance of Hamburg as an attractive location for tourism and the corresponding investments: This year, according to "Nordwirtschaft", there are 1alt="2 new hotel projects with a total of alt="2,800 beds before completion.
And these trends are not only found here: The UNWTO (United Nations World Tourism Organization) predicts an increase in international tourist trips from 9alt="2alt="2 million in the year alt="2008 to 1.6 billion in the next 10 years ahead.
Tourism is naturally closely linked to other areas such as event management, trade fair and event management, sports and wellness, the hotel and catering industry or transport.
The event industry is also booming. For many companies, events are a natural part of the marketing concept. Other institutions use events for employee or customer loyalty. Events have to attract attention, be well organized, run perfectly for outsiders and be pleasantly remembered for a long time.
There are different areas of work for graduates in the large tourism companies, for example in marketing, in HR management or in the legal department. Flexibility and inventiveness are among the necessary qualities in the industry. Excellent knowledge of several languages and initial experience abroad are required. A pronounced service mentality is particularly important for the companies in the sector.
In cooperation with the Hamburg Tourist Association:
<img class="image-element pull-left half-width" src="src_NUM_alt="2_" alt="2" title="alt="2" /> NBS always focuses onthe employability of graduates . This is promoted, for example, by the integrated free seminar program. Are you considering an academic career?

The course prepares you for the requirements of entrepreneurial management in a practical way and provides you with solid training in the methodology of scientific work. You will be qualified to work successfully in international companies or organizations and in culturally different professional and work fields by integrating international issues in all suitable courses.
The course can be divided into two phases: in the first three semesters there are only basic modules. The focus is on imparting the basic knowledge required for further study in the areas of methodology, business administration, economics, mathematics and law. In the later semesters, you will continue to expand your business management know-how in parallel with your degree specializations.
The faster networking of the study content is promoted above all by the fact that not every module is examined in the form of an exam: At least one module per semester is completed with a term paper and/or presentation. Above all, this should promote your methodological competence in the field of scientific work and enable you to obtain the necessary information even for complex questions and to evaluate it critically.
