About the course

An English-taught business degree specialising in supply chain management. It covers procurement, logistics, operations management and ERP systems such as SAP, alongside general business subjects. It is taught in small groups using SRH’s CORE model. The longer International Experience Track includes an internship or a semester abroad.

Entry requirements for Irish students

  • German rules (KMK/ZAB on anabin) say the Leaving Certificate gives direct university entry only with six subjects. At least two must be at Higher Level with H5 or better, and the other four at H6 or O6 or better. The six must include two languages and Maths at O5/H6 or better. Business courses also need Higher Level Maths at H5. LCA and LCVP are not accepted. SRH asks for a general higher education or university of applied sciences entrance qualification and publishes no Ireland-specific rules, so confirm with SRH admissions.
  • SRH selects students through an admissions interview. There is no entrance exam: you get your acceptance letter after a successful interview.
  • You need proof of English. If you do not have a certificate, you can take SRH’s own English Proficiency Certificate test. Ask admissions whether Leaving Cert English is accepted.
