Programme Philosophy and ContentThe increasing internationalisation of business means con-ventional business courses are no longer sufficient to prepare graduates for their future global activities. Therefore Bremen University of Applied Sciences introduced the international de-gree programme Applied Business Languages and Internatio-nal Management (AWS) in 1988.
The AWS degree programme combines disciplines in business and economics with a non-European language (Arabic, Chine-se or Japanese) as well as English, the language of business. It is based on a solid foundation of essential knowledge about the economic and social structures and those of society in the regions of the chosen language and culture, and this know-ledge is reinforced with a one-year practical phase in a country where the chosen language is spoken.
The year abroad is an integral component of the programme and is divided into a period of advanced language study at one of the partner universities followed by an internship in the country. A large number of cooperations with universities in the Arab countries, in China and in Japan support the collabo-ration in the training of students and the exchange of faculty. The internship in the chosen region is done in German, inter-national or local businesses, organisations, or associations etc.
The AWS programme was founded as one of the first interna-tional degree programmes at Bremen University of Applied Sci-ences. Until today, AWS represents a soldom and conspicuous combination for Germany: With its economical and intercul-tural competency and the integrated year abroad AWS has become a model programme for many international studies.
APPLIED BUSINESS LANGUAGESAND INTERNATIONAL MANAGEMENT
(AWS) B.A.
The degree programme prepares students for an occupation in an international environment. With knowledge in business and economics, combined with language qualifications and intercultural competency, graduates are able to take on ma-nagement and administration duties within a global context. They find themselves in foreign economic departments of large
companies, in smaller and medium trade companies, in inter-national projects as well as establishments and joint ventures in German companies overseas. Occupational prospects also span the fields of tourism, management consultancy and in-tercultural training.
At this point, there are already some 1,000 graduates of the AWS programme. Around 80% of these graduates have ob-tained a position that can be directly related to the focus areas of the programme, 30% of them abroad. Some have even established their own company.
