Internship

Practical relevance plus professional contacts

Practical training is an integral part of the Bachelor's degree programmes. Depending on the degree programme, it is completed in companies, institutions, educational establishments, clinics, surgeries, etc. outside the university. This allows you to apply your theoretical knowledge in practice and also gives you the opportunity to make professional contacts. You can find the basics of the internships in the study and examination regulations of the respective degree programmes.

Practical semester

The internship in the practical semester usually comprises 80 working days and serves to put into practice and deepen the knowledge gained so far in the degree programme. In this advanced stage of the programme, students are required to work on projects in the specialist departments of the internship companies.

Practical school studies

As part of the Engineering Education degree programme, a school placement must be completed by the end of the 3rd semester. An accompanying seminar is offered for this work placement (preparatory phase as part of block courses at the end of the 1st semester, reflection and accompanying courses during the work placement phase, follow-up seminars in the 2nd and 3rd semesters).

Practical semester abroad

You also have the opportunity to complete your practical semester abroad.

In the course of globalisation, an internship abroad is becoming increasingly important. Today, it is very important for career planning if you can demonstrate work experience abroad, good foreign language skills and intercultural competences.
