The university offers both individual as well as team coaching for newly appointed professors and lecturers. Teachers can also rely on extensive opportunities for continuing education (e.g. on topics such as skill orientation and problem-based learning). Teaching is characterised by high practical relevance. Lectures on Natural Science and technical topics are generally accompanied by practicals in laboratories. Bachelor's degree courses also include a practical semester which is carried out in a company or government authority.

The degree course in Biomedical Engineering (Master's) is conducted entirely in English and is therefore interesting for students from abroad. The university has an International Office, which helps students who want to go abroad (e.g. when applying for an Erasmus study stay). Bachelor's students who are required to complete a practical semester can do this abroad. International exchange is promoted by partner universities abroad and participation in international networks (including CARPE).

The university has modern, well-equipped laboratories in which, among other things, lecture-accompanying internships are carried out. The department of Medical Technology is also equipped with a simulation laboratory, an ambulance and an intensive station to be able to represent the emergency medical supply chain (from rescue through to transport all the way to the emergency room and treatment in the hospital). Through cooperation with companies, the department has a large collection of functional medical technology products.
