BA Economics (minor subject) at University of Bonn

Economics is divided into economics and business administration: economics deals with macroeconomic aspects, i.e. it investigates the interactions between all those involved in economic life (state, companies, private households, consumers). Business administration, on the other hand, focuses more on individual economic aspects and examines the interdependencies within individual companies or households. This subject teaches basic economic concepts and economic thinking based on a methodological, analytical and research-oriented approach.
