Bachelor of Science in Management

The Bachelor of Science in Management aims to develop in students the analytical capabilities, technical skills and interpersonal skills they will need in the world of business, research and public administration, and to provide a firm grasp of the theory of management. It stands apart from similar programmes offered elsewhere in Switzerland by its strongly quantitative orientation, and attracts many students from other cantons (40%) and abroad (22 %). The first two years form a common study programme with the Bachelor of Science in Economics.

The course lays strong emphasis on quantitative aspects: statistics, mathematics, IT, decision-making analysis, finance and economics account for around 70% of the teaching. In the third year, students choose courses in different fields of management. Management studies offer many career opportunities in large companies and SMEs (in finance, marketing, human resources, etc) and pave the way for starting a company. Most students continue their studies with a Master’s degree.
