EMPOWERING MINDS. INSPIRING INNOVATIONS. SHAPING TRANSFORMATIONS.

As part of Leuphana University, the School of Management and Technology is a dynamic and innovative community of students and faculty with high-level expertise in the fields of organization studies, responsible management, entrepreneurship, product development process, digital transformation and data science, and psychology and societal transformation. Our core aspiration is driving innovation in management and technology to shape responsible and sustainable transformations. In our research, we pioneer understandings of and solutions to the core challenges of our time, such as digitalization and sustainable production. In our teaching, we challenge conventional wisdom and inspire entrepreneurial thinking and responsible action. In business and society, we team up with local and international partners to contribute to the regional development of northern Germany. We value the interrelationships between disciplines, which is reflected in our interdisciplinary degree programs and collaboration in research.

 

The School of Management and Technology is home to the disciplines of Accounting and Finance, Business Psychology, Business Information Systems, Engineering, Management and Marketing. We support the respective identities and profile development of the disciplines, while also promoting interdisciplinary research and teaching in the shape of programs of study and research centers. This interdisciplinary approach is characterized by a commitment to responsibility and helping meet societal challenges.

Main research areas

The School of Management and Technology is the academic and professional home to 1,500 bachelor’s, master’s and doctoral students, more than 50 professors, more than 70 research associates and research assistants, 36 professional staff members.
