International Business Administration
2b Content of the programme in 2013/2014 for the students who enrolled in the programme in 2012, 2011 and earlier
Students already enrolled in the current Business Administration programme (cohorts 2012, 2011 and older) who obtain at minimum 45 EC in the first year will continue their study in education model that was at place when they stared their study. The Tables 2b, 2c and 2d show the curriculum for these students.
According to the so called “Binding advice” students who did not obtain 45 EC in the first year cannot continue their education in the same programme. In case of special circumstances (e.g. illness) exceptions are possible. For further explanation ask your study advisor.
The second year courses of this curriculum will be offered for the last time in the academic year 2013-2014 and the courses of the third year will be offered for the last time in 2014-2015.
Students of the cohorts 2012, 2011 and older who have not finished all courses successfully need to look for further instructions on how to proceed with the courses that still need to pass in the Transitional arrangements (section 6).

*: Students who did not obtain 45 EC of the first year cannot continue the study in this programme any more. For more information contact your study advisor.
**: Starting from the academic year 2011-2012, Bachelor’s students Business Adminstration may choose to exchange from one up to three courses of the second year of the regular curriculum for an equal number of courses from the IBA curriculum (See the table 2d).
This possibility is open only to students of the cohorts 2009 and later who meet the following conditions:
- The student has obtained at least 45 EC of the first year’s (propedeutic) programme
- The student is sufficiently proficient in the English language
- The student has obtained the consent of the student adviser for BA.
Students who meet these conditions can choose one of the following options:
- Take 1 IBA course from the first block (5 EC)
- Take 1 IBA course from the first block and 1 IBA course from the second block (10 EC total). Both courses have to be chosen from the same specialization (see the specializations below)
- Take all courses of a specific specialisation. Take 1 IBA course from the first block, 1 IBA course from the second block and the IBA seminar in the third block (15 EC total) all from the same specialization.
N.B. 1: Other combinations are not allowed, due to prerequisite knowledge demands.
N.B. 2: The courses and seminar of the ‘Human Resources & Organisation Studies’ specialization are excluded from the exchange options described above, because of too much overlap with the regular BSc BK curriculum.
