Studying abroad - We offer the opportunity to study in an exotic country and having the chance to get to know the country and its people as a part of the International Business study course. In addition to the traditional semester abroad, we offer our students the opportunity to spend a whole year studying at one of our partner universities. Students can gain valuable experience, make international contacts and can deepen their language skills. The International Business course follows on from the six-semester Bachelor of Business Administration.

Tuition fees at the host university are generally not incurred by students in the "International Business" course. Only for the academic year in Edinburgh are there moderate fees of £1,820 (as of 18/19). The academic year in Finland is currently free of tuition fees. We are happy to provide information about funding opportunities at our information events on the International Business study course.
Digitalisation and globalisation are driving many companies to align their business processes internationally. We at the HFT Stuttgart also take these megatrends seriously and offer an extended course in International Business following the six-semester Bachelor of Arts in Business Administration. Students who want to start their career in a globally operating company are prepared for an international career by this course of studies.
We provide a sound and generalist education in all economically relevant modules and also offer a strong profile of language and intercultural skills. Students complete their basic studies at the HFT within six semesters in Stuttgart.
This is followed by the opportunity to study two further semesters at one of our foreign partner universities. At the partner university, the students can continue their study focus chosen in the 4th semester from the profiles and/or choose additional subjects. In this way they sharpen their qualification profile with regard to employability. The study contents that our students choose at the partner university are closely coordinated with us in advance. At the end of the eighth semester students complete their studies with a total of 240 ECTS-CP, accredited according to FIBAA, and two partner universities also award a second degree.
The stay abroad in Mérida in Mexico was one of the most beautiful and interesting experiences I had during my studies of business administration. Mexico not only offers the opportunity to significantly improve your Spanish language skills, but also has a lot to offer in terms of culture, scenery and interpersonal skills.
With our Bachelor International Business course we offer our students the opportunity to prepare for a career in an international context. The additional one-year period abroad qualifies students on the one hand through excellent language skills and intercultural experience, and on the other hand through studies at foreign partner universities. The option of a double degree is made possible by our cooperation with the Edinburgh Napier University in Scotland and the Finnish Metropolia University in Helsinki.
Extended foreign language skills, experience abroad and internationally oriented study contents put our students in a very good position with regard to careers in internationally operating companies. This makes our graduates interesting candidates for globally operating groups, especially in the Stuttgart metropolitan region.
