The aim of this module is for students to understand the interplay of globalisation and change of socio-political and economic framework conditions on the one hand, and also the necessary strategic and operative adaptation processes on a microeconomic level. They also learn about the background and motivations.

• Function-related international management
• Risk management for companies working internationally
• Regional and cultural dimensions in international management
