Management & Organisation

Introduction to the Department of Management & Organization Studies

The Department of Management & Organization Studies is engaged in teaching and research in Bachelor and Master programmes in Economics and in Business Administration. The focus of the activities lies on topics of management, organizational design and processes, change, human resource management, and organizational behavior. Faculty members are involved in both fundamental and applied research projects.

Current research areas are strategies and structural design of organizations in a service driven economy, increasing diversity of the work force (females, minorities, and elderly workers), and the need for continuous learning. Traditionally faculty members of M&O have many field contacts in public and private sector organizations.
