More than ever before, managers and entrepreneurs are being confronted with demands that can no longer be met with the skillset provided by a classic business management qualification. This has exposed the limitations of conventional management education; an opinion also shared by the renowned Canadian management theorist Henry Mintzberg. These challenges require a communicational and organizational approach, as well as a more advanced knowledge of political science.
ZU has responded to these challenges with a new type (by German standards) of educational program for entrepreneurial all-rounders. During the course of the four-year “Corporate Management & Economics | CME” bachelor's degree program our graduates will learn how to combine Business Administration and Economics skills with Cultural Studies, Communication and Media Studies, as well as aspects of Politics and Administrative Sciences knowledge.
Although quite a few courses at ZU are offered in English, it is not possible to complete the Bachelor in Corporate Management & Economics entirely in English. Language skills in English are preferred, while German is an absolute necessity. ZU requires very good proficiency in German language on C1 level for all degree-seeking applicants. Applicants who have not learned German as a native language must provide proof of German language proficiency (level C1).

The fees per semester of the four-year bachelor's program come to €6,550. Thus, the cost of an eight-semester program, if paid per semester, is €52,400. Monthly payment of tuition fees is also possible, please contact the Admissions Team.
The fees per semester of the three-year bachelor's program come to €7,500. Thus, the cost of an eight-semester program, if paid per semester, is €45,000. Monthly payment of tuition fees is also possible, please contact the Admissions Team.
No financial obstacles should stand in the way of an excellent education, which is why we offer you individual financing options for your studies at ZU.
Scholarships are not only available for young people who have achieved exceptional results - we also offer scholarships to applicants with experience beyond success or with a strong commitment to cultural, political or social issues.

"When choosing my degree course, it was important to me to be taught more than just traditional business school economics. Compared to other business administration courses, the Corporate Management & Economics course offered insights into political science and a very research-oriented course. On the selection day, I was also impressed by the familiar environment on campus, which I was able to help shape in my later studies, both in teaching and in the cultural and initiative landscape. What I particularly liked about the teaching was the close exchange with the lecturers and the interdisciplinary approach of many courses.
After graduating from ZU, I completed a long internship in the corporate strategy department of an automobile manufacturer before moving to Sweden for my Master's degree at the University of Gothenburg."
