Do you want to study at the cutting edge of science, engineering and business, crossing the boundaries of each discipline to gain new insights and learn how to innovate? Our new programme Business Engineering is for students with a pioneering spirit and will train you for exciting jobs that combine business and new technologies.

By following this programme, you will develop your skills in math, science, engineering, business and economics. We will look at problems from both the academic and practical angle in order to find potential solutions that have a positive impact on society.  

The programme is offered by the Faculty of Science and Engineering in collaboration with the School of Business and Economics, combining and integrating high-end expertise in science, engineering and business.  

Why this programme?

In an era characterised by rapid technological developments and radically different business models, it is crucial to provide an educational programme that gives you the capabilities to respond to the challenges of today’s society.

Think of the widespread use of new technologies such as additive manufacturing or virtual reality applications. Alternatively, the growing importance of analysing and interpreting big data and understanding that humankind should be smarter in using the limited natural resources on our planet. That is why it is crucial to understand the context in which these challenges arise, in order to solve these complex problems.

Let’s have a look at the following example. Delays in the production of aircrafts due to engine problems can only be solved by combining and integrating different disciplines which might include materials science, product engineering and operations management.

• How fast do materials wear and tear?
• Should the design of the aircraft be altered to solve the problem?
• How could inventory management be optimised to rule out production delays?

Be part of something new:

Traditional scientists and engineers developing new materials, approaches or methods need complementary business and economic expertise to commercialise their final product or service and produce it on a larger scale. On the other hand, entrepreneurs or business managers may see a gap in the market but lack the scientific or technical expertise to successfully commercialise the product or service. 

The bachelor Business Engineering seeks to bridge these two worlds together by bringing together the disciplines of science, engineering and business.

Small-scale teaching:

The main method of instruction for the BSc Business Engineering programme is Problem-Based Learning (PBL). In a PBL environment, you work in small tutorial groups of about 15 students on scientific and social issues, usually in the form of case studies. You conduct discussions, exchange knowledge and formulate your learning goals as a group. By actively addressing real-life issues, you better grasp the theory and learn to apply your insights to various situations. The variety of perspectives enlivens the discussions and allows you to experience the true strength of your group’s cultural diversity. 

Furthermore, in the curriculum of the BSc Business Engineering programme we also integrate Research-Based Learning (RBL) as an integral part of your education. In RBL, you work on contemporary research topics as part of your study. During courses and skills trainings, you examine research problems for which the answers are not yet known. You conduct your own research in close cooperation with scientists and researchers during the project periods and the Thesis Research Project. This allows you to apply your knowledge and to make your own discoveries, rather than simply learning about existing theories.
