Bachelor in Economics and Management

Economics and Management is a bachelor's program taught in English at Libera Università di BOLZANO in Bolzano, Italy, over three years. This field combines the study of economic theory with the practical disciplines of business management, giving students a foundation in both how markets and economies function and how individual organizations are run. Typical subjects include microeconomics and macroeconomics, financial accounting, corporate finance, and business statistics. Coursework commonly covers organizational behavior, strategic management, and marketing fundamentals, alongside quantitative methods used to analyze business and economic data. Students in this field usually study the legal and institutional frameworks that shape business activity, including elements of commercial and labor law relevant to running an organization. Because economics and management are closely linked in practice, programs in this area often include case studies that apply economic reasoning to business decisions, such as pricing, investment, and resource allocation. Some coursework may address international business and trade, reflecting the interconnected nature of modern economies. Graduates of this discipline typically pursue careers in corporate finance, accounting, consulting, marketing, or general management roles across a range of industries. Others move into banking, entrepreneurship, or public sector economic policy roles, or continue into master's-level study in economics, management, or a specialized business field such as finance or marketing. Studying this program in Bolzano situates students within the multilingual South Tyrol region of northern Italy, an area with connections to both Italian and German-speaking business communities in Central Europe.
