The School of Business and Economics
The School of Business and Economics is located near Hackescher Markt, just around the corner from the spectacular street Unter den Linden, where Humboldt's main building is situated. Our faculty, which opened in 1906, is steeped in tradition, and finds its scientific (mathematical) based academic approach from some of the great names that have attended the University, including Nobel prize winner Laureate Wassily Leontief. The faculty also boasts a stunning Chapel from 1300, which is rumored to be the oldest building in all of Berlin. There is still access to the Chapel to this day, and often guest lectures can be heard there. Our tradition is fundamental to us, but we also stay with the times, which is reflected in an extensive refurbishment of the faculty. Studying in a building with such tradition, accompanied by modern comforts, creates a wonderful experience. We hope to welcome you to our faculty soon.
