Location: online
Trainer: Dr. Alexander Egeling
Info & registration: please send e-mail to cesar.cabrera@uni-hamburg.de( cesar.cabrera"AT"physik.uni-hamburg.de)
Content: The workshop provides a compact and practical introduction to the basics of business administration for those who have not studied it. In addition to the explanation of typical economic thinking and theories, this primarily concerns insights into the areas of corporate management, organization, controlling and marketing. In this workshop, knowledge is imparted that is needed after a job change to the business world in order to be able to understand and classify the processes in companies. At the same time, however, this is also increasingly relevant for scientific activities, especially in the area of third-party funded projects and science management; for the preparation of one's own self-employment it is essential. Trying out and practicing what has been learned also focuses on areas that can already be used in your current professional phase.
The following topics will be covered:
- Business administration in a nutshell: Which theories should you know and what do you need to keep in mind when working in a market-oriented environment?
- Internal management: How are processes within companies organized, implemented and con-trolled? What does corporate management, controlling and marketing involve?
- Organisation, controlling, marketing: How can I use business knowledge in the future? And which insights can help me right now?
