Sie studieren mit Kolleginnen und Kollegen aus aller Welt und haben die Möglichkeit, das 3. Semester im Ausland an einer unserer zahlreichen Partner-Universitäten zu verbringen.
Betriebswirtschaft leicht erklärt
Die Betriebswirtschaftslehre befasst sich mit der Führung, Steuerung und Organisation von Unternehmen.
Anders ausgedrückt beschreibt sie die Unternehmensvorgänge in Betrieben: Ziel ist es, die Aufgabenbereiche, Herangehensweisen und Zielsetzungen der einzelnen Unternehmensbereiche zu planen, durchzuführen und im Nachhinein zu analysieren.
Einige Teilbereiche der Betriebswirtschaftslehre: Rechnungswesen und Finanzierung, Marketing, Personalwesen und Controlling.
Schwerpunkte: Tourism and Leisure Management
Tourismus ist ein Überbegriff für das Reisen. Es handelt sich nicht nur um einen der größten, sondern auch am schnellsten wachsenden Wirtschaftssektoren weltweit.
Zudem gilt er als einer der weltweit bedeutendsten Arbeitgeber. Neben der Reisebranche sind das Gastgewerbe und die Freizeitwirtschaft Teile des Tourismus.
Auch im Tourismus und in der Freizeitwirtschaft gibt es zahlreiche Spezialbereiche.
Diese werden in unserem Bachelor-Studiengang in den Modulen Fundamentals of Tourism, Marketing und Specialised Tourism Industries behandelt. Einige Beispiele von Lehrveranstaltungen: Hospitality Management, Destination Management, Digital Tourism and Digital Marketing, aber auch Event Management, Sustainability in Tourism sowie Culture, Heritage and Tourism.
Im Modul Specialised Tourism Management entscheiden Sie sich zwischen Hospitality Consulting und Destination Consulting und spezialisieren sich damit im Bereich der Hotellerie oder der Steuerung von Tourismusregionen.
Das Modul Specialised Tourism Industries bietet eine Reihe von spannenden Wahlfächern: Adventure, Events and Sports Tourism, Global Wellness and Spa Management sowie Congress, Events and Conference Management.
Vollzeit oder berufsbegleitend – welche Organisationsform passt am besten zu Ihnen?
Unseren Bachelor-Studiengang Tourism and Leisure Management bieten wir sowohl als Vollzeit-Studium als auch als berufsbegleitendes Studium an. Welche Organisationsform besser zu Ihnen passt, kommt ganz auf Ihre Lebensumstände an.
Berufsbegleitendes Studium
Raum für neue Perspektiven
Wenn Sie bereits einen fixen Job haben, werden Sie sich eher für unser berufsbegleitendes Studium entscheiden. Das klare Ziel: der nächste Karriereschritt oder eine berufliche Veränderung nach dem Studium.
Die Vorlesungen sind freitags und samstags geblockt – und sind so optimal mit Ihrem Arbeitsalltag kombinierbar. Zusätzlich dazu ist eine Blockwoche pro Semester vorgesehen.
Das Besondere: In den Vorlesungen können Sie und Ihre Kolleginnen und Kollegen bereits Beispiele aus Ihrem Berufsalltag mit einbringen. So entstehen interessante Diskussionen! Außerdem können Sie in zahlreichen Projekten und Arbeiten auf Problemstellungen aus Ihrem Unternehmen eingehen.
Vollzeit-Studium
Hochschul-Feeling pur
Sie wollen sich voll auf das Studium konzentrieren und nicht auf das typische Studierenden-Leben verzichten? Dann sind Sie wohl eher der Typ für ein Vollzeitstudium. Die Vorlesungen finden im Normalfall von Montag bis Freitag statt.
Sie verbringen unter der Woche also einen Großteil der Zeit in Krems und können so auch von allen weiteren Angeboten und Services unserer Fachhochschule profitieren.
Aber keine Angst: Auch hier kommt der Praxisaspekt nicht zu kurz: ein mehrmonatiges Berufspraktikum, Business Cases sowie Firmenkooperationen und mehr – wir sind nicht umsonst darauf stolz, unseren Studierenden angewandtes Wissen zu vermitteln. Ganz nach dem Motto: study the art of applied sciences.
" Internationalität ist eines der Hauptmerkmale der Tourismus-Branche. Studieren Sie gemeinsam mit Kolleginnen und Kollegen aus vielen Nationen und profitieren Sie von deren verschiedenen beruflichen Hintergründen.

Nach Abschluss dieses Bachelor-Studiums verfügen Sie neben fundierten fachlichen und wissenschaftlichen Fähigkeiten auch über eine hohe soziale Kompetenz.
Im Bachelor-Studium entwickeln Sie fundierte Basiskompetenzen auf dem Gebiet der Betriebswirtschaft, Volkswirtschaft und Rechtswissenschaft.
Im Studium machen Sie sich unter anderem mit folgenden betriebswirtschaftlichen Disziplinen vertraut:
- Rechnungswesen und Finanzierung: Sie können Aufgaben aus den Bereichen Buchhaltung, Bilanzierung und Controlling übernehmen. Außerdem sind Sie mit unterschiedlichen Finanzierungs- und Budgetierungsinstrumenten vertraut und können diese optimal einsetzen.
- Marketing: Im Studium beschäftigen Sie sich mit den grundlegenden Marketing-Modellen. Neben den klassischen Methoden liegt Ihr Fokus auf internationalem Marketing und Marktforschung.
- Personalwesen und Organisationsentwicklung: Sie machen sich mit den Aufgaben des Personalwesens vertraut und lernen, auf interkulturelle Unterschiede einzugehen. Aufgrund Ihres breiten unternehmerischen Basiswissens können Sie außerdem dazu beitragen, dass sich Ihr Unternehmen den Zielen entsprechend weiterentwickelt.
Mikro- und Makroökonomie sind feste Bestandteile des Studienplans. Am Ende Ihres Studiums verstehen Sie daher nicht nur die einzelwirtschaftlichen, sondern auch die großen gesamtwirtschaftlichen und weltpolitischen Zusammenhänge und können darauf aufbauend Entscheidungen für Ihre Organisation ableiten.
Darüber hinaus verschaffen Sie sich im Studium einen Überblick über die verschiedenen Bereiche der Rechtswissenschaften. Der Fokus liegt auf dem internationalen beziehungsweise europäischen Recht.
Englisch als Studien- und Kommunikationssprache: Nach dem Studium treten Sie selbstbewusst im internationalen Umfeld auf. Sowohl schriftlich als auch mündlich – Sie kommunizieren fließend. Ein wichtiges Argument am Arbeitsmarkt!
Darüber hinaus beschäftigen Sie sich über Ihr gesamtes Studium hinweg mit einer weiteren Fremdsprache. Zur Auswahl stehen Spanisch und Französisch.
Neben Ihren fachlichen Kompetenzen werden Sie in Ihrem Berufsalltag vor allem auch Ihre sozialen Fähigkeiten täglich einsetzen.
Deswegen legen wir besonderen Wert auf die sogenannten Soft Skills: In zahlreichen Gruppenarbeiten trainieren Sie Ihre Teamfähigkeit und lernen, mit Konflikten in der Gruppe umzugehen. Darüber hinaus vermitteln wir Ihnen Präsentationstechniken, bereiten Sie auf Leitungsfunktionen im Team vor und geben Ihnen Instrumente zur Konfliktlösung mit auf den Weg.
Ein besonderer Mehrwert des Studiums: Aufgrund des starken internationalen Fokus entwickeln Sie ausgeprägte interkulturelle Fähigkeiten. Sie lernen, mit unterschiedlichen Ansichten und Herangehensweisen besser umzugehen und erkennen das Potenzial von Teams mit unterschiedlichen persönlichen und kulturellen Hintergründen. Kurz: Sie werden im Berufsleben mit Geschäftspartnerinnen und Geschäftspartnern aus verschiedenen Teilen der Welt kompetent agieren können.
Die Auseinandersetzung mit forschungsorientierten Problemstellungen stellt einen wichtigen Aspekt eines Hochschulstudiums dar. Deswegen vermitteln wir Ihnen die wissenschaftlichen Kompetenzen, um Forschungsprozesse nachvollziehen und erfolgreich mitgestalten zu können.
Beschäftigen Sie sich in der Bachelor-Arbeit mit aktuellen touristischen Themen wie „Digital transformation in travel and tourism“, „Brand management in tourism destinations“, „Trends in wellness tourism“ oder „Sustainable event management“, um nur einige konkrete Beispiele unserer Studierenden zu nennen. Knüpfen Sie im Zuge Ihrer wissenschaftlichen Recherchen wichtige Kontakte zu Unternehmen für Ihr späteres Berufsleben!
Eines ist im Studium immer präsent: die starke Ausrichtung auf die Tourismus-Branche. Sie machen sich mit den Basics vertraut, beschäftigen sich allerdings auch mit speziellen Bereichen des Tourismus. Im Modul Specialised Tourism Industries eignen Sie sich Kompetenzen in den Bereichen Adventure, Events and Sports Tourism, Global Wellness and Spa Management oder Congress, Events and Conference Management an.
Außerdem spezialisieren Sie sich im 5. Semester je nach Interesse entweder im Bereich Hospitality Consulting oder Destination Consulting – also entweder im Consulting für Tourismusbetriebe oder Tourismusregionen.
Am Ende Ihres Studiums sind Sie daher eine nachgefragte Expertin oder ein nachgefragter Experte im Tourismus.

Zugangsvoraussetzungen
Welche Zugangsvoraussetzungen gelten für unsere Bachelor-Studiengänge?
Ein Bachelor-Studium setzt voraus, dass Sie über eine allgemeine Hochschulreife – also über die Matura oder eine gleichwertige Qualifikation – verfügen. Falls Sie diese Voraussetzung nicht erfüllen, können Sie sich im Bereich Studieren ohne Matura darüber informieren, wie Sie sich trotzdem für einen unserer Bachelor-Studiengänge qualifizieren können.
Sie verfügen über ein ausländisches Zeugnis der allgemeinen Hochschulreife?
Wir prüfen die Gleichwertigkeit mit der allgemeinen Hochschulreife gemäß § 4 FHG (Fachhochschulgesetz) idgF, sobald die Online-Bewerbung vollständig abgeschlossen ist. Falls die Gleichwertigkeit nicht gegeben ist, erhalten Sie von uns alle Informationen über die nötigen Ergänzungsprüfungen.
Müssen Sie während des Studiums eine berufliche Tätigkeit nachweisen?
Wir sind überzeugt: Eine enge Verknüpfung von Theorie und Praxis ist der Schlüssel zum Erfolg eines berufsbegleitenden Studiums. Daher sind im Studienplan Praktikumseinheiten fix vorgesehen. Wenn Sie allerdings einer einschlägigen Berufstätigkeit nachgehen, werden diese ECTS semesterweise angerechnet.
Andernfalls müssen Sie ein Praktikum im Ausmaß der jeweiligen ECTS-Workload erbringen: 1 ECTS entspricht dabei 25 Stunden.
Welchen Sprachnachweis benötigen Sie für unseren englischsprachigen Bachelor-Studiengang?
Wir werden Ihre Englischkenntnisse im Rahmen des Aufnahmegesprächs überprüfen. Gesonderte Zertifikate sind also nicht nötig.
Wichtig
Steht Ihnen der Präsenz- beziehungsweise Zivildienst noch bevor? Als männlicher Bewerber mit österreichischer Staatsbürgerschaft empfehlen wir Ihnen dringend, die Wehrpflicht noch vor dem Studium abzuleisten. So können Sie Ihr Studium ohne Unterbrechung durchführen und direkt nach dem Studium in das Berufsleben einsteigen.
Aufnahmeverfahren
Aufnahmegespräch
Wir möchten Sie gerne persönlich kennen lernen:
Im Rahmen der Online-Bewerbung ist ein Motivationsschreiben und ein kurzes Essay zu einem studiengangsrelevanten Thema zu verfassen. Vorgegebene Fragen zu Ihren Beweggründen, sowie die Anforderungen und Themenstellungen für Ihr Essay finden Sie in der Online-Bewerbung. Sie wählen eines der vorgeschlagenen Themen aus, führen eine Recherche durch um Ihren Wissenstand zu erweitern, setzen sich mit den Fragestellungen auseinander und bringen im Essay Ihren eigenen Standpunkt ein. Ihre Antworten sind in eigens dafür vorgesehene Eingabefelder einzutragen.
Für Ihr Aufnahmegespräch werden Ihr Motivationsschreiben und Ihr Essay als Grundlage herangezogen. Jede Bewerberin und jeder Bewerber erhält die Möglichkeit, sich in einem Einzelgespräch, das in der Regel mit dem Studiengangsleiter bzw. der Studiengangsleiterin geführt wird, vorzustellen. Neben dem persönlichen Kennenlernen werden Ihre Beweggründe für das Studium besprochen, das ausgewählte Thema und die Argumentation im Essay diskutiert, sowie die Relevanz dieses Themas für den Studiengang erörtert.
Das Aufnahmegespräch findet online über Microsoft Teams statt und wird in der Unterrichtssprache des Studiengangs geführt.
Nach dem Aufnahmegespräch werden das Motivationsschreiben, der Essay und das Gespräch nach den inhaltlichen Aussagen, der Ausdruckskraft und der Argumentation bewertet.
Welche Aufnahmetermine gibt es?
Sie haben in der Regel die Wahl zwischen mehreren Aufnahmetagen, die mit Kontingenten hinterlegt sind. Im Zuge der Online-Bewerbung können Sie Ihren bevorzugten Termin auswählen. Um noch von der vollen Auswahl an Terminen profitieren zu können, empfehlen wir Ihnen, Ihre Bewerbung rechtzeitig durchzuführen.
