The programme aims to give you a broad introduction to a number of economic, legal and organisational issues in the business community. Apart from business issues, the programme also considers socio-economic aspects and the joint interaction between economics and business administration.
In specific terms, you learn to analyse the company's financial problems and issues and develop business administration strategies.
In addition, you learn about organisation, product development, sales, project management and innovation, and you obtain insight into the theories and methods used to understand companies' internal and external relations.
Job and career
The study programme affords immediate qualifications that enable you to handle business administration issues in both public and private companies and organisations.
This may, for example, be within industry and trade, in the service sector, financial institutions, firms of accountants and consultants.

Qualifying examination
Specific subject levels (Danish upper secondary school):

* Mathematics B

You must meet the admission requirements and submit documentation no later than 5 July in the year of application.
The subject-specific level requirements must be passed in accordance with the degree programme’s regulations and marking assessment. This means grade 6 (Danish 13-point grading scale)/grade 2 (Danish 7-point grading scale) or higher. If several marks are included in the subject, the requirements are only met if the average grade is 6 (13-point grading scale)/grade 2 (7-point grading scale). You cannot meet the requirements by rounding up grades. This also counts if the subject is part of a fully qualifying examination.
Applicants with a foreign entrance examination
Quota 2 prerequisite
As is the case with applicants in quota 1, applicants in quota 2 must meet the demands regarding a qualifying examination and the specific admission requirements stated above. The following also applies:
Applicants in quota 2 are admitted pursuant to an allocation of points based on work experience and periods abroad, as well as any time spent at a Danish folk high school.
This means that applicants with the highest points are admitted until there is no room for more.
Minimum qualifications:
To be assessed in quota 2, you must have gained work experience, attended a Danish folk high school or spent a period abroad for a minimum of six months after completing your upper secondary school education. If you do not meet this requirement, you will not be eligible for a quota 2 place.
Your work experience must include paid work amounting to approximately 30 hours per week. There are no requirements regarding the nature of the work, and any study-related work also counts here.
In connection with periods spent abroad, there are no requirements regarding specific areas of the world, and any study-related period abroad also counts here.
Work experience, attendance at a Danish folk high school and periods spent abroad can be pieced together, by all means from several periods. However, they may not have taken place during your schooling.
Points:
You can earn points for several different activities within the same period. Admission to relevant higher education programmes abroad, for example, can count as both study-related higher education and a study-related period.
In addition, you can qualify for further points via different activities, provided you comply with the admission requirements and the minimum qualifications.
However, such activities can only be counted for a maximum period of 12 months altogether. Any points for marks and levels from your qualifying examination do not count in these 12 months.
Points Criteria for earning points
1 B level in Mathematics with minimum marks 10
1 A level in Mathematics
1 B level in English with minimum marks 10 or A level in English
1 Above A level in English

Accreditation
After the Student life Section there should be a section called Accreditations , that should include the following information:
The former Aarhus School of Business, Aarhus University (ASB), is one of Europe's largest and best business schools, as is illustrated by the accreditations which ASB has earned in the past seven years. ASB has been EQUIS-accredited since 2001, and in January 2008 we were approved to initiate the AACSB accreditation process.
Proof of high quality and international focus
EQUIS and AACSB are the leading international quality systems for assessing, improving and accrediting institutions of higher education within the field of management and business administration. In order to live up to these accreditations, ASB must not only demonstrate that we are capable of high-quality performance, but also that our activities are internationally oriented. The accreditations are also proof that we have achieved a good balance between high academic quality and professional relevance through close collaboration with the national and international business communities.
These accreditations are vital for the institution to maintain and strengthen its position in an increasingly competitive sector. They are decisive for ASB's brand and for our ability to attract the right students, researchers and collaborative partners. The accreditations are renewed every three to five years, which ensures that we work on an ongoing basis to develop ourselves and to improve the quality of everything we do.
Facts about EQUIS, AACSB and AMBA accreditations
EQUIS stands for European Quality Improvement System, and accreditation is awarded by the EFMD (European Foundation of Management Development), whose members comprise leading business schools all over the world.
AACSB stands for Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business, and AASCSB International awards accreditation.
The accreditations are awarded to the entire institution – not just to individual programs or parts of the organization. Both accreditation systems maintain a significant focus on strategy.
AMBA stands for Association of MBAs , which is an independent international organization for MBA students, masters and employers. The AMBA accreditation is awarded to the entire institution but relates specifically to MBA programs. The purpose of AMBA is to secure high standards for MBA programs worldwide.
ACE Denmark
In August 2007, it was enacted that higher education study programs offered by the Danish University Act must be accredited by the Accreditation Institution - ACE Denmark. Accreditation is a professional assessment carried out using centrally set criteria for quality of existing and new courses. The purpose is to ensure and document quality and relevance of the higher education study programs.
According to the Danish University Act, the accreditation council is the specific unit, which makes the decisions regarding accreditation of all higher education study programs. Decisions are made on the basis of accreditation reports prepared by accreditation operators.
