Compare Economics and Business Economics with Business Administration and other programmes

See how the Bachelor's in Economics and Business Economics compares with the Bachelor's in Business Administration. Although these two Bachelor's programmes have some elements in common, there are important differences between them:

  • Economics and Business Economics focuses on economic questions and uses quantitative methods based on mathematics and statistics.
  • Business Administration focuses on what is involved in running and administrating a business, especially from a strategic perspective and in light of aspects related to people, such as customers and staff. Its methods are both quantitative and qualitative.

The programmes overlap in areas such as accounting and finance.
