The Wirtschaftswoche ranking was published yesterday. One thing is certain: The results of the Faculty of Management, Economics and Social Sciences at the University of Cologne are impressive. Cologne graduates are rated highly by employers throughout Germany.
The following WiSo degree programmes have proven to be particularly successful and popular with employers: Information Systems, Business Administration and Economics. In these three subject areas, the WiSo remains in the Top10 and can therefore count itself among the best-listed universities in Germany.
Among information systems students, the university ranks 4th and thus achieves the best result of all non-technical universities. The list is topped by TU Munich, TU Darmstadt and TU Dresden.
The business administration and economics departments have now been consistently in the Top10 for more than 10 years. The UoC is ranked 7th in the business administration, while it is ranked 5th place in economics with 15.5 %.
