Programme

The goal of management is to achieve organizational objectives through the effective utilization of material resources and coordination of people. The Business and Management program provides students with the conceptual knowledge, technical background and people skills to advance their career objectives. An important focus of management is effective decision-making. The Business and Management program helps students identify the expectations, constraints and available choices when making decisions in managerial positions. In today’s global economy, students must cope with change and develop a better understanding of other cultures.

The diversity of the student body at Webster Vienna and the professional background of the international faculty provide the ideal environment to develop the skills to manage complex change. The objective of the marketing core is to provide an opportunity for the student to study the dynamics of human behavior that affect marketing decisions. Included in this analysis is an examination of effective marketing practices and procedures and the analytical techniques required prior to basic marketing decisions.

Target audience

  • The Business and Management programs prepare students for international careers in multinational corporations in every branch of business from arts management and the service industries to manufacturing, retailing, and e-commerce. The program puts a strong emphasis on the application of theory to practice through the use of interactive methods of instruction such as case studies, teamwork, and real-world projects. One of the most important outcomes of the program is the ability to work in a team. Another important emphasis is on entrepreneurship and e-commerce. While many graduates find positions in management, others use their entrepreneurial knowledge and skills to start their own companies.
