While you study according to the regular curriculum, you gain practical experience with your practice partner during the lecture-free period. This gives you a concrete perspective early on of what your professional career could look like after graduation. The company training allowance will provide you with financial support from the start of your studies.
As a graduate of this practice-intensive degree programme, you will have a high-quality academic degree (Bachelor) and tailor-made content from the company. This will equip you with the theoretical and practical knowledge you need to join the company.
Diverse and practical training: Through numerous projects and collaborations with industry, you will gain practical insights and be able to apply what you have learnt directly.
Personalised support: Small seminar groups and personal support ensure that you feel that you are in good hands and can get help quickly if you have any questions.
