WiSo Nuremberg (School of Business, Economics and Society) is a faculty within Friedrich-Alexander University Erlangen-Nuremberg (FAU) with over 6,000 students studying business, economics, and social sciences at FAU's Nuremberg campus. This division of Bavaria's second-largest university offers over 20 bachelor's and master's programs including International Business Studies, Business Information Systems, Economics, Management, and Social Economics, operating as part of the comprehensive FAU structure while maintaining its own identity in Nuremberg's city center. Located in Nuremberg (520,000 residents), Bavaria's second-largest city with a diversified economy including Siemens headquarters, numerous SMEs, and the historic trade fair grounds, the faculty operates from buildings near the main train station providing urban campus experience distinct from FAU's technical faculties in Erlangen. Programs operate primarily in German requiring C1 proficiency for bachelor's degrees, with competitive admission for popular programs like International Business Studies often requiring Abitur grades of 1.5-2.3, while several English-taught master's programs including International Business Studies and Marketing attract international students.
