Other educational backgrounds
If the university assesses that an applicant possesses comparable academic qualifications to those acquired with a BSc in Economics and Business Administration enabling the applicant to complete the program, the applicant may be admitted. The university may require that the applicant passes supplementary courses and/or tests prior to enrollment.
In order for a degree to be deemed as providing qualifications similar to those of the BSc programme in Economics and Business Administration, it must be a bachelor degree from a university. The programme must include 75 ECTS courses covering the disciplines within economics and business administration.
This means that the following subjects must be included with the stipulated number of ECTS
- 5 ECTS Microeconomics or Managerial Economics
- 5 ECTS Accounting
- 5 ECTS Corporate Finance
- 5 ECTS Marketing
- 5 ECTS Organizational Theory
- 5 ECTS Statistics
- 5 ECTS Theory of Science and/or Scientific Methodology and Methods. This demand is fulfilled if the bachelor degree is acquired at a university
- 5 ECTS 5 ECTS Additional methods for analysis of data (statistics or other quantitative and/or qualitative. Collection of data may be a small part of this)
- Additional 35 ECTS subjects within the area of business economics and business administration
Applicants with another basis for admission, for example a professional bachelor’s degree from Denmark or another country, may be admitted after an individual assessment, i.e. the applicant’s bachelor degree must cover the areas stipulated above and be of the same academic depth.
In case the above requirements are not fulfilled the applicant must pass additional tests and/or courses prior to enrollment in order for the applicant to obtain qualifications similar to those of the admission requirements.
