Tasks that go beyond the scope of individual Master's theses or cover more complex topics are dealt with by the Institute of Business Administration and Industrial Sociology, e.g. via project staff or in the form of collective projects (several related theses) in cooperation with companies.

Example: Project - Andritz Hydro GmbH
The project focussed on improving the company's technology release process. The Institute was responsible for project management as well as the planning, moderation and follow-up of coordination workshops. Operational project management on site was carried out by an Institute project employee.

In the ‘study’ form of co-operation, the client defines the objectives of the study and the Institute of Business Administration and Industrial Sociology carries out the study as the contractor with sole and main responsibility.

Based on the courses and seminars, the Institute of Business Economics and Industrial Sociology offers various types of company-specific training courses.

• Complete seminars such as Marketing Management (German/English), Controlling (German/English), Marketing and Sales Controlling (German), Rhetoric & Presentation (German/English) and Marketing Intelligence (German) can be booked
• Individual seminars can be combined to design and organise new, cross-thematic seminars.
• There is the option of basic training on various modules and tools of business administration. The modules can also be specifically customised, e.g. in the areas of bookkeeping and accounting, cost and profit accounting, investment and financing or business appraisal.

Training courses have already been organised with companies such as KWB Energiesysteme GmbH and Böhler Uddeholm.
