Learnings and Challenges from 20 years of Double Degree Cooperations from International Perspectives

Prof. Michael Faustino Bauer

Professor for Business Administration, in particular Managerial Accounting
Academic supervisor of Double Degree programmes at Dept. Business & Economics, Berlin University of Economics and Law 

Before teaching at the HWR Berlin I gathered many years of experience in consulting, as a manager, and in professional training for strategy, business development and financial steering.
I am leading classes about Digital Business & Technology Management for the MBA program at the Berlin Professional School (AMBA accredited) where we work a lot with company partners.
My diploma (M.Sc. Industrial Engineering, 1996) is from KIT - Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, and my doctorate from WHU Otto Beisheim School of Management, Vallendar (2001).
I believe in people… and in interdisciplinary teamwork with fun and agility, also fostering analytical excellence and cross-functional collaboration. I am looking forward to working with you!
