More information regarding admission requirements

Admission requirements

For the Mechanical Engineering dual course of study, in addition to the entrance qualification for studies at universities of applied sciences, a training contract is required for enrolment, which is concluded between the company and the student or trainee. In addition, the company and the student or trainee determine how to implement the requirements of the course (e.g.: Internships, modules) takes place. In the Bachelor's degree course, the training occupation and the training company must match the chosen degree course from a technical point of view. The department will determine whether such a correspondence exists.
