Introduction
The Technische Hochschule Ostwestfalen-Lippe (TH OWL), also OWL University of Applied Sciences and Arts, is a prominent higher education institution in the Ostwestfalen-Lippe region of Germany. It offers over 50 Bachelor's and Master's degree programs as well as doctoral programs established within the Graduate School NRW (GS NRW). The TH OWL is creative, innovative, and sustainable. At its three locations Lemgo, Detmold, and Höxter, it thrives through the diversity of its departments, which are technically, economically, creatively, and artistically oriented.
This department was founded on January 1, 2019, on the Innovation Campus in Lemgo and focuses on the needs of the new "smart", entrepreneurial medium-sized companies through its business administration, logistics, and business psychology courses as well as its research activities. It is important to us that our students are practical and, Particularly in practice, we teach in small groups. We offer an academic standard that can range from a bachelor's degree through a master's degree to a doctorate.
It is important to us to be up to date and to provide our students with the best possible training to prepare for their career entry. The focus is on the digitalization and sustainability of international corporate value-creation processes. We pay particular attention to medium-sized businesses, not least because we have excellent networks with many medium-sized companies in the Lippe region.
