Business Administration

Bilingual Bachelor's studies

The University of St.Gallen (HSG) offers 6 Bachelor’s programmes. Bachelor's studies consist of the Assessment Year and studies in the major. After three years, successful students are awarded the internationally recognised degree of Bachelor of Arts or, in the case of Computer Science, a Bachelor of Science.

You can complete the Assessment Year either in German or in English. Students who intend to pursue the German-language majors in Law, Law and Economics, or Computer Science must complete the Assessment Year in German. Those planning to major in Business Administration, Economics, or International Affairs can choose either the German or English track of the Assessment Year, as these majors are bilingual.

All students in the bilingual Bachelor's programme must attend at least two courses taught in the other language. Students who choose the English-language track of the Assessment Year are not required to speak German prior to their studies. They can learn German while studying and attend courses taught in German towards the end of the Bachelor's programme. German classes are offered by the HSG's Language Center.
