With Business Engineering you combine technology and commerce.
The study program consists of Electronic engineering, marketing and business economics with possible options for some mechatronics related subjects. Next to a broad knowledge of technology you also need to know a lot how business processes work and how the market looks like. Technology related subjects, marketing and business economics are integrated in the study program. As a future Business engineer you will be able to apply technology and commerce related knowledge. Business engineering includes all activities that are necessary to develop and maintain an independent line of business. It is comparable with starting a business, but includes the novel component. That means that there is no core market yet and market opportunities need to be created.
This 4- year Bachelor programme leads to the international Bachelor degree in Engineering.
In our University of Appied Sciences you will get a combination of theoretical subjects and practical training. This practical training is very important. In this programme we offer 2 semesters in which you work and study in an international oriented company in the Netherlands where you apply your knowledge. These semesters are placed in the third year (internship) and in the fourth year (graduation project).
