Objectives:Business
Economics
The course Business Economics for Engineers provides the tools to effectively manage the firm and introduces the most important business issues the entrepreneur incurs.
The emphasis is on financial analysis: How to judge financial performance of an enterprise?
How to decide on investment proposals? How to raise capital?
Successful entrepreneurship starts with accurate analysis of the firm, product and market.

Objectives:Airport strategic planning
systems Understanding of the complex interrelationships and interactions among airport capacity, airport demand, policy changes, investments, and environmental issues.
laboratory exercises “design and operate your own airport”, which are directly linked to the topics of the lectures.
In the laboratory exercises use is made of an integrated set of software tools called the Airport Business Suite (ABS).
