Apprenticeships

Depending on the cooperating company, we offer two study options:

In the training-integrated degree programme, you also complete a commercial apprenticeship in a cooperating company and acquire a commercial qualification in addition to the Bachelor of Engineering degree. The final industrial examination is regularly organised by the Chamber of Industry and Commerce.

In the practice-integrated degree programme, you will complete extensive practical phases in the cooperating company. However, there is no compulsory vocational schooling here and you are not aiming for a skilled worker qualification. In this variant, a practical semester can also be replaced by distributed practical phases totalling 18 weeks at the partner company.

Both options require a contract with one of our industrial partners.

Possible training occupations if you choose the training-integrated study option:

  • Electrical systems fitter,
  • Electronics technician for automation technology,
  • Electronics technician for operating technology,
  • Electronics technician for devices and systems,
  • Electronics technicians for information and systems technology,
  • IT specialists for application development,
  • Mechatronics technicians

Why study electrical engineering and information technology in a combined degree programme?

1

Direct application of what you have learnt

You can immediately apply the theoretical knowledge you acquire in a practical environment. This gives you a better understanding of the content and allows you to experience the practical aspects of your subject at first hand.

2

Networking opportunities

By working closely with companies, you will get to know important contacts at an early stage. These can be useful when looking for a job later on and help you to establish yourself in the industry. You will often be taken on directly by the industry partner after graduation.

3

Improved career opportunities

With a practice-based degree programme, you will be in particularly high demand. Your mix of theoretical knowledge and practical experience makes you particularly attractive to potential employers and significantly improves your chances of getting a job.

4

Internship remuneration

And last but not least, you will of course also benefit from the internship allowance that your industry partner usually pays you during your studies.
