...industrial engineering?
Industrial engineering combines the fields of engineering and business administration. You will learn how systems and plants are developed, planned and operated technically and economically. This is highly relevant for technically orientated companies of all sizes.
With a degree in industrial engineering, you can work in many exciting areas, e.g. in companies in the energy industry, planning and project management offices, public institutions, supervisory authorities, consulting companies, banks and insurance companies. Typical positions include project manager, planning engineer, sales engineer or development engineer.

Who says you have to choose?
We have the right thing for you!
The StudiumPraxis programme combines the advantages of an academic degree with the benefits of in-depth practical phases in a company. The company accompanies you as a practice partner throughout your entire degree programme. 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.
Even when studyingPractice PLUS a company accompanies you as a practice partner throughout the entire degree programme. In addition, some content from the regular curriculum of the Industrial Engineering and Management degree programme is not completed at the university, but at the practice partner through practical modules. This results in an adapted curriculum for this type of degree programme with an even higher practical component.
