The lab must last at least 18 weeks. It must be completed in companies, public authorities, law firms or scientific institutions, etc. If the task is fulfilled, the lab is awarded 15 credits.
The project work as part of the scientific project in accordance with § 12 StO consists of a documentation of the activity in the company or the institution corresponding to the study objective (report on the practical activity - internship report) and the project task.

Excerpt from the study and examination regulations
Teaching and studies should prepare students for professional activities in the field of Economics and Administration and provide them with the necessary professional and practical knowledge, skills and methods in such a way that they are enabled to carry out independent scientific work, to think critically and to act freely, responsibly and socially. From a professional point of view, students should receive a broad scientific interdisciplinary education that leads to a generalist qualification and thus to a long-term ability to work in different professional fields. In addition, cognitive and social skills are to be taught as interdisciplinary qualifications. These skills should make it possible to recognize problems specific to the professional field and to develop solutions with social competence and leadership skills. In particular, teaching and studies should prepare students for professional activities in the field of governmental and non-governmental organizations as well as for activities in nationally and internationally active commercial enterprises. Furthermore, students should become familiar with the use of Business Law and economic policy instruments and be able to describe and independently analyze current problems in the context of international Economics and develop solution options using scientific methods. This practical relevance of the degree program is to be established through the integration of projects and case studies, among other things. At the same time, the Bachelor's degree also establishes the basic eligibility for admission to a Master's degree course.
In projects, students contribute to the processing, analysis and solution of problems from their immediate professional practice under the supervision of authorized examiners and additionally through self-organized work in small groups.
(1) The lab/scientific project is part of the degree program and is demonstrably carried out in a company or an institution corresponding to the study objective. If sufficient practical placements are not available, these may exceptionally be replaced in whole or in part by equivalent practical projects or practical phases at the university.
(2) The duration of the lab/scientific project is at least 18 weeks.
(3) The internship/scientific project shall be carried out on the basis of the degree program's internship regulations.
(4) The lab/scientific project may be replaced by a study phase at a cooperating foreign university - semester at another domestic or foreign institution. The scope and crediting of this study phase should correspond to the lab/academic project; the duration and content should be regulated in agreements between the cooperating departments.
Projects are practice-oriented works that lead to independent contributions by the individual members of the project group in small groups under supervision as well as through self-organized work by the project group. The results are jointly presented and defended in a project report.
