Structure of the degree program

Students are employed by a company from the very beginning. They study during the semester and go through work and training phases in the companies during the semester breaks.

In parallel to their theoretical studies at the university, they work practically and go through training in the companies in close coordination in order to achieve a duality between work in the company and scientific training.

 

Excerpts from the employment contract:

"... The company shall provide the student with a study allowance for the duration of the study period in the amount of monthly ..."

"... During the lecture-free period, the student undertakes to work at the company's premises ... In addition to the study allowance, the student shall receive a monthly payment for the duration of the study period in the amount of ... "

Organization of the degree program

Subject examination regulations/degree plans/module handbooks

Subject examination regulations (FPOs) define the basic structures of a degree program (e.g. admission requirements and contents to be studied). The current version of an PO automatically applies to students when enrolling in the first semester of study. This means that, even if the FPO changes during the course of your studies, the original version in effect at the time of enrollment still applies (provided that said FPO does not expire).
The respective degree plan contains the recommended exemplary course of studies in the individual subjects and is part of an FPO.
Supplementary regulations and detailed information on each module to be studied can be found in the module handbooks (e.g. requirements for taking a written examination or information about the content of modules/courses, …).

We recommend that, as a minimum, you take a look at the degree plan of your degree program before the start of the lecture period so that you know which modules are intended for the start of your studies.
